Makes sense since you don’t know where you’re going to be if something steps off.

The closest I came was a few years ago when A1 tried to go after my partner. It was in the 2nd half and I was T in from of Team A’s bench. The first thing I did was look at Team A’s head coach and shout, “Keep your players here!” The next thing I did was look at Team B’s bench and yell, “Stay right where you are!” Two of Team A’s subs missed the memo and were tossed because they left the bench area. The tough part was remembering who they were since they had their warm-ups on – they were deep on the bench, as in the only way they would’ve played is if the team was hit by a plague. Team B shot four FTs and eventually won in overtime.

I can’t see how Side 2 would ever happen. As long as the number of players leaving each bench is the same all of the flagrant Ts offset.
