So you are saying that NO MLB umpires use an indicator? I find that almost impossible to believe.

I have never seen/heard anything from experienced umpires, or at camps, or whatever, that losing the indicator was/is expected by a certain level....only that what's important is not to get 'lost' in it and lose focus on the game.

If one aspires to work without one, that's great...I can see how it might more finely-tune your focus and of course be one fewer item to break/lose/etc. But that fact alone doesn't make one a better or worse PU.
