I read this differently - 5.10.1(C) says that you cannot correct the OFFICIAL based on the CLOCK (i.e., call a 10 second violation, give the ball to B, and reset the clock to 2 seconds).

In this case, the official was not following prescribed mechanics - where in the rule book, case book, or official's manual does it say to signal the clock to start before the throw-in is legally touched inbounds? (On an inbounds play, of course.)
