No, I don't agree with this. We've discussed this before on this forum. The penalty is against K, not R, so the ball isn't being moved toward the end zone. Marking the ball 25 yards from the kick is NOT a penalty, so the "half the distance" principle doesn't apply. It's simply an option that R has.
I also believe that we agreed that if the kick is at the R25 or closer, then the 25 yard option does not apply.
