The bottom line for me is this: I cannot leave opponents unattended behind me, period. If that means I have to sacrifice a bit of FT coverage, so be it.

Hear hear!!
Seeing that the lane can be fully covered by two officials, if I'm T in a 3-man game and there are opponents in the BC, I might go as far back as the halfcourt line (of course, our IM courts are somewhat short - it's not too far back) - you can still watch the lane while keeping an eye on the BC and the table.
