One.
We tell our officials to tell the head coaches in the pre-game talk that it is expected that they will be the only ones standing in the box when play is going on. If the assistants are up later, then they should tell the head coach the first chance that they get that he is now being warned for allowing that assistant to stand. Next time, call the "T" with no further second warning.
Personally, I can agree and understand about not immediately stopping play to deliver that warning, as long as they
do deliver it fairly quickly.
Of course, as usual, mileage may vary across the country.
