Maybe we should eliminate use of single/double and just use bonus/bonuses

That isn't what it means, however.
The penalty is one shot plus a bonus shot if they make the first.
The latter really isn't an automatic bonus or a double bonus, it is just 2 shots. There is no bonus to it. The whole thing is the natural penalty and they get it no matter what. However, automatic is far closer than double if we're going to use the term bonus.
