I didn't say that. I said don't call time until the play is complete. When a runner is out in right field and the ball is live, the play is not complete. I can grudgingly go along with after F1 has the ball in the circle and the BR is committed to return or be in violation of LB, but even then, there remains the possiblity of the bonehead move by either the offense or defense.
It really is not necessary to call time... sure, it relieves you of the responsiblity of keeping the field in view, but leaving the ball live does NOT mean you stand and wait.
