We don't agree, since if I ever summon the director, for any reason, I will center the clock first.

ABT Rule 5.2 STOPPING THE CLOCK. A player stops both clocks, (a) to offer a concession, (b) to take an authorized break between games in the match, (c) to retrieve fallen dice, (d) to contest an opponent’s action, (e) to move after the opponent has picked up the dice in error, or (f) to summon the Director.
