Suggested rules change

I cannot think of one good reason for not changing the timeout rule to this:

A team gets five timeouts per game, with a maximum of 3 fulls.

There is nothing more irritating, and unnecessary, for a coach to call a 30 and then the table signals that they are out of 30s. So we have to make it a full. Why? Makes no sense. If a team wants to call five 30s, why not let them do it. It could easily be a strategic move (make a quick adjustment, but don't want to kill our momentum, etc.). It will keep the games moving--better for everyone. We don't have media or TV considerations. Seriously, someone should suggest this to the NFHS rules committee.
