I doubt the coach cares what type of violation it would have been...all he's thinking is he might be "screwed" out of a potential turnover or assessed a "phantom foul"...so in that case I don't think you've really made anything any harder/easier either way. And to be realistic, this situation is almost always a travel vs. foul or maybe held ball v. foul.
