Do you think that the coach has many opportunities to stand?
Luckily, the events JR described are not very common. How often have you had a coach go to the table about a possible correctable error situation? I'm lucky if I have to use 2-10 once every few years. And a coach thinking there is one? Even less often. DQs and TOs are similar in that a coach is deciding who to put in. So let him walk a few feet up and down the bench.
The majority of a game is the usual up and down with dead ball periods. That 95% of the game the coach is seatbelted after a T.
