I definitely agree - wearing creaky old nurse's shoes could draw that unwanted attention.

I guess I wasn't saying don't do it, just don't get in the habit of blowing the whistle all the time. I have seen officials blow the whistle on EVERY throw-in. That definitely draws attention. I was only trying to make the point that just because it's a good idea in this case, too much can be a bad idea.
