In my experiences, those who follow that mindset love to bring it up in the lockerroom, after the game when there is nothing you can do about it.
Others believe that they should provide the info & allow the calling official to decide what to do with the info.
When the boss asks about the questionable OOB call with 4 seconds left in a tied ballgame, I would like to be seen on film offering info as opposed to saying, "he didnt ask for help."
Because "he didnt ask for help" will lead to "did you see it?"
Thats just me...

Again, both systems only work when everyone involved wants to get it right. If I'm lead, and there's a play where I need help, I'll ask. Too many times, though, the T sees blue tip the ball and thinks it's white ball. What he misses, though, is that white hit it after. If T comes in on me there, I'm not changing.
I promise you, I'll ask if there's any chance I missed it. I will also, however, assume my partner is as conscientious as I am.
Obviously, things change if my partner is green or week, but all the rules go out in that case anyway.
