Introducing new types of fouls in the fourth quarter is too late.

What about in situations where the first illegal screen is in the 4th quarter? Are you not calling it because it hasn't been called all game?
I don't mind calling a new foul at any point in the game as long as tape supports my call. What I do mind, is we as a crew haven't called a 3 second violation all game and then we get one in the 4th quarter. But that would be introducing a new violation into the game, which is different than what you stated.
