My thoughts EXACTLY. Doing it this way only, potentially, causes the "slow" team to lose possession of the ball.

If you do it when the "slow" team is on defense, you're gifting 2 points to the opposition. ROP doesn't need to be that severe of a penalty.....

What if the team only does it when they will be on defense following time-outs? Coaches (especially at the NCAA level) are smart enough to figure this out.

NCAA has a DOG warning for this.

If they delay after that, well ....
