How is reminding coaches about the coaching box any different than telling the players, "Let's watch out for the hand checking"?

We can call multiple fouls for hand-checking. Coaching box infractions are technicals. Since they make a big deal about the coaching box (do not get me started) in my state, I also address the box so that when I tell them to get back into the box, they were told previously.
