You're missing the point about "any rule statement assumes no other violation / infraction occurs" (or whatever the specific statement is).

Bob, While I'll admit that this is not the common sense way to do it, I don't believe that the following applies.
RULE 4 - SECTION 38 RULE
ART. 1 . . . A rule is one of a group of regulations which governs the game.
ART. 2 . . . A game regulation, commonly called a rule, sometimes states or implies that the ball is dead or a foul or violation is involved. If it does not, it is assumed the ball is live and no foul or violation has occurred to affect the situation.
ART. 3 . . . A single infraction is not complicated by a second infraction unless so stated or implied.
In this case only a single infraction has occurred: the teams have gone the wrong way. Nothing else against the rules has happened.
