That quick, I'd be tempted to ask him for some time to make some mistakes before he starts jumping on my back.

More likely, I'd either go with #2, but it's going to take an extra second to do it right. I honestly think it's a throw-away line for some of these lower level coaches; they have no idea what it means.
I usually go with #1 and sometimes #2. Usually if the coach gets to the point where I would get to #3 there are other mitigating circumstances.
I may be in the minority, but to me it is just a throw away line. I have a hard time justifying a T when we call a foul/violation (3 seconds and illegal screens particularly) and the coach says "Call it both ways." I put that in the same category as "They are doing the same thing down there."
