I am surprised the commentator did not know the rule and agreed with the official.

It's not at all unlikely for the commentator to not know the rule.

The first rule for watching sports on TV -- The commentators get paid for their personalities, and interesting voices, not for their intelligence. If you start listening carefully to their comments, they don't demonstrate any more understanding of the coaches or the players than they do of the refs. They are just plain .... uh, personalities.
