It mattereth not whether the scorekeeper mis-recorded correct information or correctly recorded mis-information. It's still a bookeeping error. Fix it if you are able to.
Which is exactly what Rule 2-11-11 states that you can legally do. That rule specifically refers to a discrepancy regarding fouls, refers to it as a "bookkeeping mistake", and also very specifically states that this discrepancy concerning fouls can be corrected at any time up to the end of the game.

For all those saying anything different, can you cite a rule- any rule- that would contradict this rule and back up your position?
