Sitting on the bench with hands on head (and mouth shut)? Not me.

Throwing up hands and stomping off court? Yep.

Which one is obvious to granny? (That part isn't explicitly in the rules...)

Which is how I would call it, but it seems some are being instructed to call this even when the player tucks his proverbial tail between his legs and heads to the bench prior to the sub being beckoned. The wording of the rule leads me to believe it should only be called when it's "to demonstrate frustration."
