There, I just said it.

And if you refuse to believe that, just open your rule book to page 32 and read rules 4-19-3 and 4-19-4.

Intentional fouls and flagrant fouls are two completely different types of fouls, and never the twain shall meet.

Would you use the "traveling" signal to show a "3 seconds" violation?

Btw, in rule 4-19-4, you'll find wording that says that flagrant fouls may or may not be intentional in nature, By "intentional", the FED is talking about the adjective describing the "act", not the "name" of the foul.
Regarding 4-19-4, is this your interpretation of what the FED is talking about? Seems to me that there is room for multiple interpretations here....
