No, it's not what the rule was designed to do, but it permits the game to be shortened if both coaches agree.

If you want a mandatory rule, contact OHSAA and recommend it. I should say, however, that it is highly unlikely to get past the (other) coaches, who typically like the power granted them by the existing rule.
