To make my point, I made my example more extreme. In my case, the TO was not requested by the coach and therefore should never have been granted. In the original situation, the official on the spot determined that he had misunderstood the coach, i.e., the coach had not been attempting to request a TO. Therefore, it became an inadvertent whistle. I think you can legitmately make this determination.
