By your definition... let it stand.

Why was it not an accidental whistle?

I don't have the FED books with me, but:

NCAA 4-37 Inadvertant Whistle -- An inadvertant whistle occurs anytime an official blows the whistle as an oversight and does not have a call to make.

Was the original game situation referring to NCAA rules?

If so, you may be correct.

IMO per NFHS Rule 2-10 or with Case 7.5.4, the whistle was blown with intent on calling a technical and not by accident.

I would either rescind the call in error within my allowable time-frame or let it stand and live with my mistake.
