This reasoning goes completely against everything Saban preaches.
Saban is a no-nonsense coach, and doesn't do something just to do it. Everything has a purpose. And letting your defense play through adversity is more useful and purposeful than calling timeout and coddling them. Saban never wastes an opportunity to teach, and you are just flat wrong in your above statement.
Whatever the coaches would say during the TO can be replicated in practice. Getting the ball moved on you and learning to overcome that in a hostile stadium can't be replicated in 1,000 practices.
What will happen in the future when we need a stop and don't have any TOs? Will your method have them prepared? Nick Saban's will.

Don't get me wrong: Saban is scant with his TO use, but I can't remember a time when he cost Bama in any significant way because of it. He let's his boys play. It's fine by me.
He's won half the nattys in a decade. It ain't broke...
