If you want, I can compile a list of all kinds of things that can be construed as "preventative umpiring" like:
- "Hey, don't throw that ball so hard on the pickoff"
- "Hey, don't slap that tag so hard"
- "Don't throw so hard to the batter, you might hurt him"
The list can go on and on.
Telling F2 where to stand is coaching, not preventative umpiring.

So would you instead say " Hey, If you stand there, you might get trucked." ?
