Now, I'm just trying to poll the field, to me this is a call I'm not making unless my training folks tell me different. Would you?

Sorry, you have read something that isn't there. The rule reference above is clear that the catcher must return pitches to the pitcher. Your "sitch" has no relationship at all; it isn't the catcher, and it isn't a pitch.
