To T or not to T; that is the question?

I did not suggest the scenario was very similar other than if a coach does something that clearly violates rules and you allow it, they will think that behavior is OK. Then the next time they get penalized when someone is not buying their position, they cannot say, "Well the other officials let me do it...."

In the OP, I do not know many coaches just entering the court until they are supposed to like an official actually grants a timeout.
