Disagree. It's a correctible error as per rule 2-10-1(b)- "awarding an unmerited free throw".
JR,
Go back and re-read the original post again. It states that the game is stopped BEFORE the administration of the second free throw for a time-out. It is during this time-out that the officials are told they should have been shooting 1-and-1 not 2. So, all we have is the official giving misinformation to the players on the first FT, just as in the case play you cited. Since they never awarded an unmerited FT, this situation does not qualify as a correctable error.
Still disagree. Read case book play 2.10.1SitD. Very similar. There's no further actual correction to be made in this case either, which is supposed to be your point, but note the language that is used therein- "Play continues briefly with B1 advancing the ball before the official RECOGNIZES THE ERROR and stops play. Again note the particular word "Error". Then note that the actual heading of this particular case book play is "CORRECTIBLE ERRORS".
