OK, I kind of see your point. What I really thought should be explained is what are they looking at when they go to the monitor. Did the foul occur before the horn? Did they already know that and just want to decide how much time would be on the clock? Did they want to know if the whistle came before the horn? And in all of that, you could throw in for good measure that it was deemed a clear foul, the foul occurred before the horn, and replay confimred this so by rule the FTs were shot. Game over.
Or not - I can see that this one might not have merited that explanation. But there was enough controversy, that I could see an easy way to address it without sounding like you are simply defending a foul call, if those lines of communication were already established.
