Lightbulb My take, not that it matters.

It still happens on at lesser games not because of the showmanship, because you do not hear or see your partner make the call or blow their whistle. I really think these calls happen not because an officials is really trying to sell the call quickly with no stop clock, it happen because the officials lose each other during the call. I think it is easy to say these cases happen because of a lot of factors and not just one factor.
