I believe that any reasonable question deserves a reasonable response.
If a coach asks for clarification on a rules interpretation, I always start the reply: "By rule.... ". But rather than quote the rule, I use "rules verbiage."
"Coach, by rule, the ball is placed at the point of interruption on an intentional foul."
I like this because it puts a coach in the position of choosing to disagree with the rules vs. disagreeing with our interpretation. Of course, the key to using this is you better know the rule. :>
