7 players on the LOS

What are the opinions of the board about the various methods of counting 7 on the line?

Our association has always done the "4 and 2" method. However, we're switching to counting the backfield this year and signaling less than 5 in the backfield with a fist toward the offense.

While I don't think 4 and 2 is perfect, I just don't feel comfortable with the counting the backfield method. Seems to add unnecessary variables into the equation, as well as pulling my focus away from the LOS - where it should be - into the offensive backfield.

It just seems to me that to ascertain the status of A, I should look at A. Not look at B to figure out what's going on with A.

Thoughts?
