Mick,

To me, this doesn't count since your responsibility is to protect the shooter back to the floor. Imagine if you don't stay with the shooter and he is planted into the second row.

In certain instances (airborne shooter being one of them and rebounding another) we all gotta cover.

My point was to not make a habit of watching outside your area.

YU.P.
Agreed.
And my point was that when a partner comes into your area, sometimes it is worth a "Thank you".

With a 2-person crew, I think it's a little easier to leave your primary area to make a call. I don't go looking for calls, but if I see something that's got to be called and I'm not too far away to sell it, I go get it. And in pre-game, I encourage my partner to do the same. With the finite areas in a 3-person crew, you generally can assume that one of your partners had a good view of the play.
