It looks horrible when both people make different calls. If the "tip" should be used, it should be used immediately after you blow the whistle for an out of bounds call, indicating that the ball was last tipped. Otherwise, common sense dictates that if there's no foul you won't call anything.

I have no problem with the tip signal in situations where the ball is tipped coming from YOUR primary and goes OOB or back court in your partner's area.
It should NEVER be used on shots, to indicate a blocked shot.
