While I agree to a point, the coach does have a legitimate question. Being vague has less of a chance of being questioned.

Once upon a time, I had a coach asking for 3-seconds in the first half on a couple of possesions by the other team. Sure enough, I call one against his team soon after. As I end up in front of him, I said, "Thanks for alerting me to the possibility of that call."

I'm kinder and gentler now as well.
