I do see that their is a bit of a difference here.
Telling the players about the status of the game is a bit different than telling them they're getting close to an infraction. I don't think it is quite the same as "Hey, watch out, you're getting close to the OOB line" or "Hey, remember, you've already dribbled".
It is more like..."You can run the line" or "Spot throw-in". They
should also know which of those it is but we do tell them that. I don't see that it would be much different to say, there are 5 seconds on the clock (to both teams).
Of course, we don't do it that way, but I could see the reasoning.
