Nothing is wrong here. If B had not fouled the penalty for A foul is enforced per each code. In this case the penalty is enforced from B’s 10. The lessen for team A is, if you want to keep all of the yardage that you gained during a play don’t foul.
Not true. The lesson here would be for team B to commit a foul and they come out much better than if they had not committed a foul. By fouling, the down is replayed from the original LOS. By not fouling, B loses all the yards A gained before their foul. So in this case, B is better off with "dirty hands" than with "clean hands".
