Only once have I seen an official use the shots signal out to the side while reporting, everyone else does it up high.

I'm sure nobody cares. I haven't signaled the number of FTs out to the side since the early 1990s (when I did have a supervisor who cared about such things - things have changed a lot in the last 20 years despite the signal chart).
