Who said this is similar to 6 people celebrating instead of 6 people dunking? Where is this ruling posted?

Ron, check out the verbiage in the ruling of case book play that I cited above...."In a situation where similar multiple infractions occur at the same time, it is not the intent of the rules to penalize each individual infraction as a separate technical foul. One technical foul is charged to team A and it is also charged indirectly to the head coach...".

Team fouls are counted towards the bonus too.
