It's simply unrealistic to believe there's never going to be a time in a quick turnover situation that an official isn't going to be out of position.

Should we all work to make sure it happens as little as possible? Absolutely. Will it still happen? Yes, though hopefully rarely.

In the OP, the lead gave him a clear 2-point signal. If the lead hadn't seen it, he shouldn't have signaled anything, and then he could look to C for help, and after that you're left with "best guess."

That's not good, but it's what a guy can do. If I'm involved in the same play and the lead on my crew gives the a signal for 2 or 3, I'm gonna trust him.
