This situation, or one very similar, has been discussed here before. This, I think, is covered under Intent and Purpose of the Rules. "A player or a team should not be permitted an advantage which is not intended by a rule."
I think it is fair to say that this was not the purpose of the lane violation rule. Therefore, if it is apparent that a team is violating to achieve the purpose mentioned here, they should be warned, and, if necessary, assessed a technical foul.
