You may not want to say so, but if you have a good deal of experience you should know that bringing coaches together is useful in some situations and telling a coach he must be seated right after the same official just gave him/her a T is not the norm. I really didn't expect you to man-up and say it, but it was worth a shot.

Pleae explain how I could be any more clear than a simple "Yes" answer to one question and a simple "No" answer to the other.
I agree 100% with the penultimate statement above.
It's also, imo, 100% inconsistent to chastise someone (I've forgotten who by now) for making a statement about talking to the coach after a T without including a disclaimer to the effect that "it might not be suitable for younger or less experienced officials" and not including the same statement when the play is about bringing the coaches together to discuss rough play.
