 IMO, a coach who gets whacked for behavior has lost some communication privileges, at least until the calling official has re-opened the door.  If my partner whacks a coach, I'm not communicating beyond the very bare minimum.
 
 I find most coaches get back to coaching and quit officiating after that anyway.
