I would ask him for the rule reference so you can inform the coach why he doesn't get an additional TO in that next over time.
He won't be able to provide you one, but sometimes you have to ask diplomatically.
Or, you could just smile and nod, knowing that if you ever get to that point, there is no maximum.
