You are missing the point.
Whether you call FOUL or SIGNAL FOUL = FOUL
Example: PU puts the "stop sign up" towards F1.
That means we have TIME and DO NOT PITCH. The PU does need to say anything.
Bottom Line: Rightly or wrongly when the players hear or see an umpire signal FOUL they STOP.
There are those rare instances (in both the LLWS and a ML baseball game) where a FOUL call was changed to fair.
The ball in this play is FOUL. BU admitted mistake (hey it happens) now time to move on.
