I use generally because if my partner calls something that is a clear misapplication n of the rule and I'm asked by the coach before I get to address it, I'll acknowledge the coach's point and then go deal with it.

Example: Throwin form the frountcourt endline that is thrown over everyone's head into the backcourt where A1 goes to get it. Partner calls a backcourt violation as soon as A1 first touches the ball.....and coach says "hey, i thought that was legal". I'll acknowledge the coach and then go to my partner.
