This is customarily taught at clinics and I assume what Elaine is referring to.
As far as being a pitcher's umpire, that should only be when the hitters are dominating the pitcher, like slow pitch. In FP, most pitchers have the advantage, so I don't think we should help them, although I respect Elaine's evaluations.
I also believe that we should all strive to have similar strike zones with the differences being individual perception and not pre-planned strategies.
