Not necessary - Until it is.

Remember it - good joke

Rely on the table - No.

Maybe these reasons apply for NBA, Big HS/College tourneys, etc. Even then I have still done it. I'm not going to muck up a game because all three of us are looking like idiots debating whether the table just screwed up an AP arrow.
Do you know how many times I had to correct somebody that did not switch the whistle in their pocket?

Sorry, I am not going by your little whistle, I am going to go by when we last changed the arrow and probably will give you the time on the clock without looking. Again it looks stupid constantly digging in your pocket every time there is a held ball or when you change the arrow. It is a crutch.

Peace
