I have been a basketball official for forty years, I am pretty good with a ten second count and have become fairly proficient and keeping track about how long one minute is. Mind you that is the only time I have shut down a team after only one warm-up pitch. Usually the one minute hits when they have finished just three warm-up pitches and I usually have this problem only a couple of times a year. The real problem is not the players but the HCes who want to have a team meeting after they have just made their third out.
