And that is great, but those are anecdotal situations, just like my case. And since I have never heard anyone having this as an issue or even discuss in a pre-game, I take it that at the end it is very rare if ever requested. Coaches ask all the time where the ball is located, but cannot think of any time they want the ball specifically at one side of the lane or not. And this includes the numerous summer games, tournament games, AAU or any other kind of game that this request could be easily made.

Well that is great, but I do not ever see these requests. There is nothing to deny when you never see a single request of this nature.
I also do not care if you move all the officials. I might be confused at first if I am not the official bringing in the ball, but there are so many bigger things to be upset by.
