So the visiting coach knows that it is improper for him to get the timer to buzz for his timeout request that the officials haven't seen, and so therefore he doesn't do it.

But the home coach does get the timers to buzz the horn. The whole premise of fairness is that each team has equal opportunities. There's no way I'm granting this timeout request, and if I do, home HC also gets a technical foul for over-stepping his bounds (2-3). If early in the game, I can see giving a warning.
