Maybe you need to look up the actual definition of the word, rather then stating something as jargon and expecting everyone to be clear with what you mean.

Answering every question a coach has can also be counter-productive. Because if one coach is quiet and one coach constantly needs attention, the quiet coach might not think highly of that official.

I was not trying to get you to agree with me. You are going to do what you want to do anyway. I was stating my opinion on the topic.
