I haven't kept accurate records, but I'd say well over 90% of the time, when F2 asks about location it goes something like "Was that _______?" Fill in the blank with low, outside etc etc. Very seldom is it an open ended question such as "Where was that?"
In other words, they know where it was and the point of their question is to politely and subtlely say "I disagree"
If I start verbalizing every close ball call I'm taking away F2s opportunity to communicate discreetly and politely. Now all he can do is show bad body language, which everyone sees, or tell me not so subtlely the call sucked.
I'm sure there are advantages to verbalizing locations, but for now I prefer the old fashion dance.
