Actually, I stated my position rather nicely. You got a problem with it. Quite beating around the bush and come out with it! You wanted to address just about everything other than the issue at hand. Hell, I got tired of trying to follow you. Only thing I can say is I'm glad people that think like you are not in positions of leadership, because we all know what you would have done about that incident. NOTHING!!!!

If a player or coach cannot handle themselves enough to not get the second one, then that is there problem.

Getting the second one is a matter of judgment. The reason we have put this into our pregame is to prevent such a confrontation/situation from escalating. Isn't this good game management? At least we are trying....
Note: it is apart of our pregame. When a technical is called, we all run over to the spot to determine what just happen and what to do next. If we got a volatile situation, we get the calling official out of there. The thinking is to protect the official, protect the coach, protect the integrity of the game, protect our game. If we can handle the situation without ejecting the coach, we are going to try. If the coach wants to air his concerns, he can air it to one of the non-calling officials. The non-calling officials job is to calm the coach and listen to the their concerns. 9 out of 10 times this works and we can continue the game w/o any ejections. In the one time it doesn't, we still follow our procedures and if we do it right, another official will signal the 2nd T.
