Even in situations where we have been asked to not call across the lane, they do not want a no call for sure. The complaint is that the lead does not rotate, not that they simply miss the call. And "It wasn't my primary" is usually not going to go over well with the people I work for either. And again, this is transition, the Lead just got to the end line.
