Ball/strike warnings are for judgment calls based on the pitch, not the bat.
Another softball only thing, then. In baseball, arguing a check swing is no different than arguing the location of the pitch. It would get a quick "knock it off" and then an ejection. And if the coach left the dugout to argue, go straight to step two.
