I agree completely. But this was a statement made directly about responsibility for violations.

A count likely started outside of the Lead's area.

This is also true. But all it means is that the Trail may have a violation before the Lead gets to 5.

And the Lead's primary is mostly for post players.

This is NOT true in NFHS mechanics. The Lead is responsible for everything below the free throw line extended and inside the 3-point arc and half the lane. That certainly includes the post players, but the Lead's area includes the 18' jump shot from the endline. You could certainly have a 5-second violation in all that space.

I think it looks silly and is not a very good practice.

I'm not going to agree or disagree. I was merely trying to point out the NFHS mechanic, based on the information that I have at hand.
