I think that you should penalize unsporting conduct when it occurs.
The ACC situation was for water on the court following a time-out and a previous warning had been given. The ACC coordinator was roundly criticized for not backing his official. The official had been instructed to make that call and did his job, then they threw him under the bus. If I recall he went deep into the NCAA tournament that season. Elite 8, I believe.

I like your thought process and it has made me think. FYI in my college game if it happened I got something. High school I would think about it for a second. Thanks for the help you showed me a different side that makes a lot of sense. I appreciate it. Seriously....
