Before doing so, I would recommend that you be prepared to explain why it is a good idea to use the same signal for a 0-0 count and a 3-2 count.
Better yet, explain why it is only with a full count that one cannot determine whether the umpire is indicating with two fingers or three.
Or is a 3-1 count, 2-2 count, 3-0 count, 2-0 count, 3-1 count equally difficult to determine whether the umpire is indicating with two fingers or three fingers?
