It's unnecessary because everybody knows it's two shots. I don't have a problem with signaling two shots, unless it's the only information given at the spot. This is a pet peeve of mine. Guys give a quick fist, put up two fingers, yell "Two!" and then run to the table.
The "Two" indication is probably the least important piece of information to be given at the spot of the foul; yet for many officials (high school AND college), it's the ONLY information given at the spot of the foul.
