Redundant. If you see a violation, you are going to make the appropriate signal/call, correct? If you don't see a violation, what is there to call? What happens when you make a safe signal and the coach is wondering "what the hell is he doing?"

And that would insinuate there was a play made. Even then, it isn't a matter of touching the base, but the runner being retired by the defense.
OTOH, it may also mean that you are making a call on a possible appeal prior to the request for an appeal.
