Don't we all know what it is the coach is yelling for when he yells "over the back" or "reaching in" or whatever?

Bravo. Common sense, please. The point is COMMUNICATION.

The overall point is that "over the back" is not a foul. You can out jump an opponent from behind and a coach will cry for "over the back." So the use of language is very important, because the term is based on a rulebook myth.
But if you want to be technical, I think you should not use any verbage at the table. You should just signal the infraction and not verbalize it. But that is the way I came up and was taught.
