And they will all start from that obvious flaw and search for more - and soon decide if they want to work with you or not.

My thought on this is why kick advancement opportunity in the backside over an obvious mechanic. Let them downgrade you over not performing a "pinch in" move on a breakaway, but not THIS!
I both assign, train and evaluate. If I'm evaluating somebody for advancement, someone standing in the wrong place during a TO would have absolutely no bearing at all on my decision as to whether they're ready for a higher level. It's just about the most minor concern that you could get, and is also just about the easiest to correct.

I want to know if someone can actually officiate. I could care less about piddly-azz stuff like that. If they're out of position during play, then you do have a problem. During a TO, it just isn't a biggie. If they wanna go boogaloo with the cheerleaders, I could care less.
