Around here, though, no one would stand for that application of the rule. I have also heard complaints that an official is simply out of step with the rest of the officiating. I have seen individuals essentially driven from the sport because they simply cannot change their style to meet expectations. Likewise, if no one is cautioning coaches or hitting them for unsportsmanlike for questioning your calls and you do it then expect to be critized and given lower marks. Cops don't write speeding tickets for 3 mph over and not too many cops give jaywalking tickets.
Wrestling is no different.
In Kansas we have a well-known, if perhaps not entirely accurate, perception, that officials in the western half never call stalling and those in the eastern half call it too much. When the two sides meet the officials work out the approach for that day's wrestling. I certainly don't have a fix. It is clear that the rules are trying to keep the action moving. Its also clear that in a lot of places the official doesn't feel obligated, and the coaches do not demand, that wrestlers be pushed by the official to wrestle.
