I do find it interesting that 2-3 (the God rule) is invoked by the case play, rather than 2-10.
It's dead becasue it was a FT that was to be followed by another FT...per the announcement of the official...even if it was an erroneous announcement. The whistle only announces to everyone that the ball was already dead.
