I'd never ask on this. Ever. Do you ask on false starts, too?
(And I always ask the sidelines on penalties.)

It's an extraneous signal. It may help once in a few games, but since you can always put the time back on the clock, it's just not needed.
It amazes me how many mechanics are local/regional.

I agree with OH on this. If they didn't score, just blow the play dead. If they scored, signal the score. No need to confirm with the other wing at all.

By confirm with the other wing, I mean "make sure he isn't signaling a score."
