IMO, "dugout restriction" has more to do with adult supervision and participation than the game. A high school coach is legally responsible for the charges of the school which means a coach recognized by the school must always be with the team. Eject the only coach, the game is over.

Being restricted to the dugout is simply a tether limiting the coach's geographical range. And it usually tends to tether their tongue or risk ejection
