I don't see how. If you do not tell anyone, it is possible that people might assume the wrong thing and be surprised when you are going to the line. Not everything you think is obvious to you is obvious to everyone.

I always will give the number of shots or the location of the in-bound. Advice to not give this really doesn't make any sense. Even if "every one in the gym" knows it is a shooting foul, your partner might not because he might be watching a competitive matchup in his area and might not have seen the foul.
