I read and understood every single word. You would rather do it by the book no matter what, no matter who's running, no matter how the play unfolds, regardless of who's your partner and what his abilities are, regardless of who would have a better, closer angle, or whether it's the best way to get the call right or not. That's cool.
I just think that the guy with the shorter, more direct, more simple route to the proper angle should take the play. Several others agree.
Perhaps the manuals will be changed to make it the standard mechanic.
