(This is not a when in Rome case, it was simply a question posed to me by someone I respect.) The latter seems so awkward. The way I have been doing it seems very smooth and seamless. I can't seem to find anything in the manuals that supports the latter view. Opinions please. Thanks for your help.

What you suggest makes perfect sense - but a threshold would be needed, such a foul line or below. But for those "strictly by the book" supervisors, you better do what the book says. To those sups who allow common sense, you're probably good to go.
