Designated TO area?

So, when Team A is ready to go after 10 seconds of a 60 second timeout, you're going to force them to remain in the TO area? How early is too early?

I'll agree they can't be in the other team's huddle, but that can easily be enforced without forcing them into their defined TO area.
