Interesting discussion. Let me offer this little tidbit when it comes to NFHS. Per rule 2-14-1, a charged conference is "when the coach or dugout/bench personnel requests and is granted a time-out to meet with offensive or defensive personnel."
That is the definition not a rule. If it only existed in its own little bubble, I would tend to agree with you. Since it does not, and there is an entire section of rules (posted earlier) in the NFHS book that deals with charged conferences, I am inclined to disagree and point out that it is one of many contradictions that exist in the book.
I'm not saying the definition is meaningless ... I'm saying it does not hold as tightly as a rule which prescribes or denies action and has consequence.
