Add a third choice: Wrong. Personal preference. Add misleading.

“He wasn't set” Misleading. Could be legally moving backward.
"On the floor" Misleading. Could be in the act of shooting while on the floor.
"Don't move" Misleading. Wrong, by rule.
"Hold your spots" Misleading. Wrong, by rule.
"You can't stand behind him" Misleading. Wrong, by rule.
"Everybody get behind the division line" Misleading. Wrong, by rule.
"Let it hit the rim" Misleading. Wrong, by rule.
"Over the back" Personal preference.
"Reaching in" Personal preference.
"Coach, you have one timeout left" Personal preference.
"Sit down" Wrong, by rule.
"You have to take out your earrings" Personal preference.

Four personal preferences. Some agreement? Some common ground?

Your words, not mine. I like the "should", much better than "must". More common ground?
