It could be that Mark's threshold is lower than others and the AD is genuinely curious why Mark would eject for that.
Personally, I don't get excited about language. I had a kid thrown out at the plate yesterday on a wild pitch, and after I punched him out, he got up and I heard a word starting with "f" come from his lips. I simply turned to him and said, "Hey, watch your language, OK?" with a smile on my face. He said, "Sorry, blue," and that was the end of it.
I save my ejections for important things. Using a word in a situation where he's not directing it at an opponent or an official isn't one of them.
