No, certainly not entirely open-ended. But neither does "includes the following and similar acts" exclude other acts that "allow the game to develop into an actionless contest."

I wonder if you started a count, just for the heck of it, would the offense pick it up, because they don't know why you are counting... I'm thinking I would give them a few seconds and then blow the whistle warn for delay both teams and start the throw in again.

I think without a doubt they would pick it up in a hurry. I think what they wouldn't know is why you weren't counting.

Assume the players are confused, blow the whistle, and resume with POI.
