Coach is screaming "IT'S 7 TO 1!!!" across the court...different story, but even I'd be inclined to try and get him back to coaching before giving a warning, especially if that's his first issue of the night.
I wouldn't say that it is an absolute, I guess I should have said could warrant. However, this does give you easy justification to any assignor.

Why did you T him?
He was complaining about the lopsided foul count.
Ok thanks

Not that you need any justification but I feel like it gives some consistency.

Assigners I know don't care if the coach calls you a motherf*cker if the one he's saying it to is the only other person in the gym who can hear it.

My assigners might not care, but I surely would.
