Don't try to talk your self out of enforcement. Yes, its odd - bt its a rule.
Maybe game management would suggest you getting near the coach and informing them of the consequences.

I agree with this part. As refs, we need to enforce the rules as written. You don't do anyone any favors by "winging it". If you think it should be changed, then work to change it. But until it IS changed, you have to do it by the book. Of course, there are rules that are subject to interpretation, and those you need to enforce as the interpretation runs in your area of the country. But things like the indirect T are in the book, and should be followed. Period.
