I agree that this seems logical. So now I ask, "How far across?" As far is if lead were on the other side of the key? Just far enough to get some kind of angle? What is the goal here?

There is NO magic spot to go to. You have to go as far as necessary to see the play. I have seen officials have to almost go out of bounds on that side of the floor to cover the play. When that happened, during the next transistion down the floor, the T becoming new L remained on that side and the old L, new T switched his/her responsibilities and took the other sideline. However, this situation needs to be addressed in pregame so that the new T would realize what is going on and adjust.
