I believe this is the part that Tim was referring to. The word YOU makes it personal, and he got personal exactly twice. Buh-bye!
"You guys don't know the rules!" is the implicit meaning of pulling out a rulebook; we would all eject for that. If we would eject for the symbol, we should eject when the statement is explicit.

If a player yelled out, "That pitch was 4 inches outside!" rather than drawing a line in the dirt, wouldn't we dump him?
