While there may be no advantage component in the rule, I don't know of anyone that wants 3 seconds called strictly by the rule. You should, however, be talking the players out of the lane. If they don't listen, go ahead and get one or two early.
Note that this is without regard to the coach bitching on the sideline. That's an entirely different matter. From the way you describe it, he wouldn't have had his coaching box long.

Maybe I'm picturing this wrong, but I don't see myself allowing this to go without a T.
But if he had been ranting 'all freaking night', it would have been addressed sooner.
