Coaches on stage?

It has most likely been asked before but I don't feel like looking for the answer..but why isn't there a spot on stage for the coaches and why do they have to go to the back? Isn't one of the major points of a coach to give instructions to the team during a game? What other major sports send the coaches away while the game is being played other than tennis?

It would be bad for the game if they did stuff like that. The coach could stare at the mini map and notice things that players cant because they are CSing and other things, remind them to ward, take objectives, not go for stuff. Which all sounds nice but it makes the players lose a lot of their self playstyles and turns it into a coach vs coach game lol.

I think it is probably because 1). it would be difficult to have the coaches only have the vision that their team has in the game (when spectating we see the whole map) and 2). part of having a good team is having players who shot-call during the game. I think the coach's role is more to help with analysis and giving tips before and after games, not during. I'm not sure though.

This isn't CS go... There are shot callers for a reason
