You never know when you are dealing with some of these coaches. Some may have some odd strategy which no one else can figure out.
But seriously a coach may have some simpathy for the other team and since an illegal pass is the end of a running play and thus the spot of the pass is the end of the run the rules book must specifically tell us what to do in that odd situation even though it may have never actually happen. It is a free 5 yards. However, if it is a half-the-distance thing a coach may actually cut the U a break and not have him try to divide some short amount of yardage in half.
