Well good for them. I cannot recall the last time someone told them they had to and that is where the players magically go. The only time this becomes even a remote issue is when a coach wants to talk to a player and it has been only a couple of times I can remember an official not allowing that interaction because they were not at half court (on the side of where the T FTs were taking place). Do not confuse what a few people say on this site and equate it to most officials do on a regular basis in their careers or games they work.
