I'm a back judge in Illinois and we're supposed to do the high arm motion (like the 10-second count in basketball) starting at 20. I have a Ready Ref (love it), so I just hit it on the RFP and start the motion when it buzzes.
I don't have a problem with it. If it's what they want, that's what I'll do. I don't know why it would be a problem or why someone would think it's distasteful. But that's just me.
