I have to disagree with you, Mark. If B has six players on the court, it is a technical foul even though it may be the officials' fault.
NFHS 10-1-6: Team technical for "Having more than five squad members participating simultaneously."
Yes, the officials should have had better eye contact. In the end, however, if there are 6 on the court, it is B's responsibility. If you had a substitution of several players from both teams and you count incorrectly so there are 6 A players, are you going to pass on the technical foul for A because you counted wrong? I hope not.
