Haven't seen the 2008 books yet, but if the recommendation is for the wingofficial to flag the sideline, that makes a lot of sense.

Presumably, it's that wing official who has been cautioning the sideline about their behavior up to the point a flag becomes necessary, and that wing official whose requests are being ignored.

It's that wing official who will have to control that sideline for the rest of the game so it seems only logical that it's that wing official who will decide when his sideline has failed to comply, and it's that wing official who has the sole authority to penalize for non-compliance, so it's he, who it makes sense sideline personnel, needs to pay attention to.
