That one could be a mistake imo. What are you gonna do if he tells one of his players to just stand at the FT line and just hold the ball? You're also admitting to that coach that you're ignoring a very plainly written rule.
I think it's better in these case to just nod your head to show the coach that you're listening, or make a very brief comment like "I'll watch for it, coach". Iow, it's OK to do it but don't admit it.
