How am I understanding things, the only ones you should be asking, in a situation like this, would be the players, coaches, bench personnel, the other officials, or the table staff.

You really don't have the knowledge to be giving advice about how officials should do their job. You are a scorekeeper. Stick to what you know. Giving the wrong advice is not helpful.
