Mark this is directly from your longwinded post:
MTD says, "You have stated that the game official made a mistake in not signaling time in, and mistakes by the game officials (not to be confused with correctable errors) cannot be corrected."
Let's look at that last line again, MTD says, " Mistakes by the game officials (not to be confused with correctable errors) CANNOT BE CORRECTED."
Would that be like erroneously signaling time to start, as in rule 5-9-1?

I was just repeating what you have been advocating: That mistakes by officials cannot be corrected. I wanted to clarify that mistakes by officials are not the same as correctable errors.
And you have been advocating that an official that erroneously signaling time in is a mistake by the official. I agree that it is a mistake by an official but it is not a correctable error.

That is what I've been saying about this 2.8 second throw in play, that it is an Officials error and NOT correctable 5.10.1.C.
Now if you are agreeing that erroneously signaling the clock to start IS an officials error, then how are you right in your interpretation on this play?

No one is disagreeing with you that the game official made a mistake when he incorrectly signaled time in, but that does not invalidate Team A's throw-in play.

Then why, by rule in 5.10.1.C,is it okay to invalidate team B's defensive effort when the official erred in their 10 second count?
