One thing I want to add to the discussion as a symantic that I remind my R of when he is giving the options.

K is under no obligation to rekick, they are entitled to replay the down. We have actually had that happen before where the Ref told an R captain that he could accept the result of the play or K would have to re-kick. Captain took that literally and when K did faked the kick and make the LTG, R's captain and coach protested that the Ref had informed them that K was required to re-kick!

Funny story but a good reminder to be very clear with the offended captain's options.
