He's a scheme wonk.
He knows that, we know that. Of course, tradition dictates that the HC is on the sideline, and there is obviously reason for that. Perhaps trying to force himself into that mold has actually been negative for the overall success of his tenure. At this point, he really has nothing to lose. Better to say "F it, I'm doing what I'm comfortable with." And really, the idea of a head coach being up and away from the action isn't an outlandish concept in other sports.
