I understand Mike's point. Taking the defense off the hook because they were not paying attention seems like over officiating. OTOH, it is the rule.
OTOH, again, the umpire's responsibilities at the end of the game are as Mike outlined. Are we actually supposed to track every runner in and out of the celebration to wait and see if they enter DBT? What if they all go through the line up hand-slap "good game" ritual that the kids do? I'll be gone before then.
