Assuming the technical was only for standing up, no.

Must the coach now leave the playing area?
Unfortunately, yes.

What people need to remember is that a T charged to a head coach (directly or indirectly) does not require them to remain seated for the entire game - it merely revokes the coaching box. Unfortunately, I don't think that those of us in coaching box states are familiar enough with the provisions of 10-5-1 and 10-5-2.

That said, it would take a lot of courage, but I would hope that the official and his/her partner could get together and perhaps rescind the technical . . .
