That's hogwash........
While the PU can sometimes get blocked out by the actions of the catcher, the BU should always be able to see and judge. While some judgments may be more difficult to make than others, the BU should always be able to see the action to make the call. If he feels he can't make the call from B or C, then he needs not to be umpiring. It's required to be able to assist your partner from those positions when needed.
