If the contact is intentional than the player or coach is gone. It's simple.

That is true. The problem for referees is when it is not CLEARLY intentional and could have been accidental, which is not that simple. As someone mentioned earlier, zero tolerance policy helps so we don't have to guess if it was intentional or not.
In your case with the sub, no ejection. It happens to all of us in basketball. If you asked that after my post before yours, I apologize for not being clear.
