Brad:
Every sport in which officials use whistles have procedures for dealing with inadvertant whistles. Why? Because officials are human (no, really we are coaches!)
Whether or not that procedure is "fair" usually depends on which color uniform you wear. But it is still a good idea to go with what the rule book says, regardless of how "fair" it seems. At that point you have already made a mistake, best not to double it by trying to make up for the initial inadvertant whistle.
