I am only addressing NFHS Baseball Rules.
Let us review the fundamentals.
1) When is F1 an Infielder and when is F1 a Pitcher? Answer: F1 is an IF when he is not in contact with the Pitcher's Plate, and he is a Pitcher when he is intentionally in contact with the Pitcher's Plate.
2) When are the Pitching Rules in Effect? Answer: When F1 is intentionally in contact with the PPLT.
Therefore, when F1 is an IF (meaning he is not intentionally in contact with the PPLT), he can take signs from any one, any where. When F1 is the P, he shall take or simulate taking his signs from F2 while in contact with the PPLT.
The purpose NFHS R6-S1-A1 is to insure that the P does not quick pitch.
