The reality is that if an umpire "improperly" takes a dead ball appeal from a coach, nothing will actually happen. The other team may protest, followed by the defense immediately having the coach tell the player exactly what to say. So even if the protest is upheld, they will just re-do the appeal correctly. It's stupid. Just let the head coach make the appeal.
