I'm not sure how you interpreted anything other than the fact that two-hand reporting is now the standard in FED, even if the sentence was poorly worded.

And I'm with Rich, the wording of the release implies that one hand will no longer be optional under strict FED mechanics.

"After verbally informing the offender, the official shall use fingers on two hands to indicate to the scorer the number of the offender and the number of free throws."

Somehow I think we will still be using one hand to indicate "2 shots". But good to know that when I call a multiple foul on 3 players during unsuccessful 3-point try, I have options.
