Conversely, I would say that the mentality that it's not two separate fouls leads to the indirect on the coach not being noted.

"No, that was on the assistant. I think?"

When you consider how rarely all this actually happens, best to plan on keeping up with the indirect/total technical count on the head coach in your own head.

Seems every year we get one or two newer officials wondering if they should shoot bonus FTs when an indirect T is charged to the coach. Similarly, we get the question of whether the indirect foul counts as a team foul towards the bonus. I think that one may actually be more common; but the problem is the same.
