I'm tempted to call this a dumb question, to be honest, because I think you knew the answer before you asked.
I didn't know the answer. I am trying to understand exactly how everybody sees the rule in question. I find it interesting that you use the word sell in your description. You will quickly sell your call to counteract your partner's sale only if you feel he was poaching in your primary? You will yield the call if it takes place in a borderline coverage area, even if you're certain your call was correct? This, to me, is even worse than the double foul, if it means that a quick, incorrect signal should take precedence over a more deliberate consideration of the play.
