I think his point included the fact that the offense
never has a choice on a balk. If the BR and every runner fail to reach their advance base on the play, then the batter returns and the balk is enforced. No choice.
I expect you know this, but for newer umpires it can be confusing to remember what penalties permit a coach a choice.
