We have several guys who don't use a whistle. I would say 99% of people in the building have no idea they don't have a lanyard.

Another in a long list of things.....
I'm with BktBallRef.
I don't worry about how the whistle is blown as long as it's timely for the play being called and it's loud. I do worry though about
why the whistle was blown and what we/you do after we/you blow the whistle. If it works for one official without him having any problems, fine. If another official is having problems with it, then just tell him to use a damn lanyard. But if it ain't broke, there's no need to fix it.
And I'm the one in the Ol' Folks home?
