Make the players call it during live balls, and all this goes away. Hell, if the coaches would teach players to mirror their requests, this would go away as well.
I don't think this makes anything go away. You'll still have quick thinking players yelling they were calling time outs. Or the coach yelling TO and then yelling at you for not seeing/hearing A3 trying to get a TO.

I just can't see any net gain from making a change. All I see are headaches while teams adapt.
