I'm playing devil's advocate a bit here, but why are you giving anyone the benefit of the doubt? That's what the DOG warning is for. We're not going to penalize you yet, we're going to give you the benefit of the doubt and give you a warning, but next time we're going to penalize it.
Giving an informal warning is basically giving a team two opportunities to delay the game.
