I understand perfectly and I agree completely with this statement. I don't think the coach could complain when you did what you did.
The point of the case play however, is that the official misunderstood what the coach said and granted a timeout which was not requested. Your situation has this in common with the case play. If you had heard what he said, you would have ignored him, right? I would have.
This is one of an infinite number of situation which is not definitively covered and I say do what you think is best at the time and plan to be happy with it later.
