You are not alone; this is surprisingly confusing to so many officials. A couple of years ago I was spectating a varsity boys game right behind the table. Game started with FTs for an admin T. Table didn’t put the team foul on the board and the game continued. Thinking it was a table oversight and trying to help the crew, I whispered to the scorer during a dead ball and they put the team foul on the board.
A minute later some knucklehead in the crew saw it on the board and took it off, insisting the admin tech did not count as a team foul. Both of his partners agreed with him.
I couldn’t believe it. Varsity crew. Ended up costing the offended team a bonus free throw later on, too. Luckily it was not a close game.
