 Regarding close plays at first when the runner beats the throw AND F3 drops the ball...
Its really not a matter of waiting on safe calls, rather, it's coming up with a relaxed safe mechanic and no verbal versus an emphatic mechanic along with a loud verbal "SAFE".  What looks more professional in this instance?  Unless you are the MASTER of the OBVIOUS, I think a simple safe mechanic is sufficient.
