I can see JR's point that there might be a coach sometime that would misconstrue what I'm trying to convey. But that hasn't happend to me yet. It's been just the right "response" to certain coach comments at certain times, and has helped the game move forward with the coach coaching and the refs reffing.

Why would I not recommend that tool for someone else to have in the kit?

Because, most likely at some point, a coach may misinterpret the meaning and it may lead to bigger problems. Just because "tools" work some of the time doesn't mean they necessarily need to be in the kit.
