In the OBR a coach is ejected immediately if he "leaves his position" to argue balls and strikes.
There's no similar language in the NFHS, and the 1993 national test question emphasized that point.

I don't remember seeing that question on the 2005/2006 test.
I didn't say it was an automatic ejection. I said that I'd warn them then and if they continued I would eject them.
So Carl, what do you do to prevent it from happening if you don't eject them?
How many trips to the plate to argue balls/strikes do you allow? How about team captains, do you allow them to argue balls/strikes? And the other players? Do the FED rules specifically state that they can’t argue balls/strike?
