You will run into knowledgeable coaches, especially at the higher levels, that know the difference between intentional and flagrant fouls. They know that their player shouldn't be getting tossed if you signaled "intentional". And you will also be evaluated somewhere down the line, even though you may not be aware of it. So, jmo but it's always a good idea to use established mechanics and signals. They might not care if you're signaling while walking or that you're a little bit outside the reporting area. Those aren't biggies. Tossing a player after signaling a foul that doesn't call for an ejection could cost you a whole lot of grief though.
