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

I'm not giving one there unless I have to, and I'm not giving one here unless I have to.

There's no inadvertent whistle. No one said TO. No player thinks there is a TO. There's zero confusion for me to give this coach any room to leave the coaching box.

That's not you responding to a post by stating a 2nd DOG warning and T is needed for this situation?
