Not when the ball is in the hands of a player for inbounding and the instruction is to the defender guarding the inbound pass..... which is the only situation where I use "don't reach".

"Straight up," is better in that situation anyway because you are talking about a plane.

I disagree - the warning & subsequent T are for reaching across the boundary line - "don't reach" is about as clear as you can get.

No the warning is for BREAKING the plane, not reaching across the plane.
When a player hears straight up, their reaction is normally to put their hands up and stop leaning into the plane.
The word REACHING should NEVER be used by an official, EVER.

Not even then.
Arm extended with palm facing the coach with, "I have heard enough, coach."
