Well considering that I am not an IAABO member and did not comment based on those sets of mechanics, this has always been taught to me and something I really learned in an ACC game where a sub was not properly brought in after FT late in a game. Well the sub was not made and I believe the team on defense could not bring in a sub to defend or a chance to defend a last second shot. The entire crew got suspended for a couple of games and fined. I learned that even if you are not listed as "responsible" by the book, you need to not just pass the buck to your partner as it still may be something you will notice. Partners get distracted or in many cases with subs where they sit in front of the table can make it easy to miss. I am not saying to only watch for this as Lead, but what is the harm to take a glance?

Peace
