I have to totally agree with you here. We have often been told to use the "Stop Sign" because it will justify any later action by us as officials. It does not work often (at least not for me it doesn't) and usually ends up in a T situation anyway. And if your assignor wants a "In the book" warning so be it as it is just as much a demand as the Stop Sign is for others.

Peace
