FIBA's mechanics, I believe, don't consider that newbies are officiating their events. There are many leagues around the world where first or second year officials are working FIBA rules, and make the mistake of the premature signal. With FIBA's L "drop" mechanic, there will be a higher number of mistakes than with Fed's "no drop" mechanic.
I don't think so. I've seen very few premature (i.e., wrong) signals of this kind; it's more frequent that an official signals on a fake, which is only an minor annoyance.

Ciao
