Who CARES what type of foul it is? All common fouls are penalized in the same way.
Many top officials I see don't report the nature of the foul near the end of the game when it becomes a free-throw-fest. Quick number and move into position....

OK, you are talking about obvious fouling situations where everyone knows what type of foul and why. The opponents of this change would still argue that it is communication and the coaches, players, etc. will want to know what type of foul it is.
I don't CARE

what type of foul it is, but I know someone else would argue.
