I believe this is just another form of non-verbal communication, in that the position of the n-a official helps communicate the type of TO, no different than in a 3-person crew standing on the blocks or top of the key. The new way also makes it easier to inform both benches after the warning horn, since the official is right at half-court.
That's exactly what we told our officials at a meeting last night.

You are wise beyond your years. Good luck with that rash on your privates.
