The interp specifically refers to 10-3-7b anmd 10-4-1c, so that's a pretty good assumption.
It's nothing more than a case play on the POE on bench decorum a few years ago -- an example was given of a coach yelling profanities (iirc) at his own team.
And, (also iirc) we've had discussions here on whether a team could be penalized for these types of actions. The answer is clear, now -- yes. (Which doesn't mean that most of us won't try to manage the situation, first).
