No I didn't. In fact I clearly stated that he asked about the call.

The entire conversation was about the previous call and I put "all he did" was answer a hypothetical in quotes for a reason. This official himself uses this as an example of why not to engage with coaches about partners' calls.
Its not the exact same thing as "relaying" info from a partner but to say it has nothing to do with the situation here is being obtuse.
Its all part of the larger point about not engaging in conversations with coaches about partners' calls because coaches will often just try to use it to their advantage or try to divide and conquer the crew in hopes of getting calls moving forward. I think most see the relevance.
My advice to the official who was thinking about relaying info from a partner was, and is, to simply get away from that line of thinking altogether for the reasons that have been stated multiple times in this thread.
