Sorry, if you prefer that way, no big deal....I just think it's odd to have someone 60 feet away wave the subs in when his partner is RIGHT THERE.
The rationale behind not administering the subs when you have the ball is that it looks sloppy and is mechanically unfeasable. One hand on the ball and waving in players with the other is plain ugly and you can't have a stop clock because your off-hand is holding the ball.

The proper game awareness in that situation is to motion to the C to bring in the subs.
