And I don't think you know what the word "bias" means.

well telling a coach there was "no advantage" is very different from some folks here that said they will tell the coach:"you're guy got an open pass" because when you say that it makes a ref sound like he's doing a favour for the team, which makes him sound bias so might as well not say anything.
a no advantage doesn't affect the play sounds more neutral compared to what some folks mentioned how they would explain to the coaches, but still saying less is better as saying more would just open up a never ending debate with the benches.
also talking to coaches during game kind of takes away some concentration on the game, even if it's during a dead ball.
