Exactly, follow up from the OP says he was about to start it. Skipping this step can only lead to trouble, and the only benefit is it saves 20 seconds. In all likelihood, this coach won't say anything to any assigner. Coach probably doesn't even know she was due a 20 second clock.
However, the chance of this coming back to bite is bigger than the benefit of saving 20 seconds.
