I had not thought of this. After thinking about this, there are 3 reasons.
1) This is a case of bad judgement by 2 experienced umpires
2) 2 experienced umpires left a rookie to swim with the sharks, by himself
3) There appears to be dishonesty by the assignor
4) I was taught to fix problems, sometimes you fix with punishment, sometimes you don't.
Thanks Garth, yet another lesson in "say what you mean, mean what you say..."
