Two Fouls

Lead and Trail blow whistle at same time, both don't initially know each have called a foul. Both call foul on defensive team. Lets say Lead has on B1 and Trail has on B2. Before reporting they get together and discuss what they have. They ultimately decide they are simultaneous fouls so each one reports their foul. Defensive team now has 2 additional fouls. Offense got the ball outbounds where point of interuption was. Team was not in bonus. Was right decision made. What if the offensive team was in bonus situation. Would you clear lane and shoot the first foul and then put players on the lane to shoot 2nd bonus? Definition for double, multiple or simultaneous does not fit 2 players of same team fouling 2 separate players. Best result is to determine one foul called before the other and ignore but one ref felt his foul was such it would be a dead ball technical. Thoughts?
