You are putting your own personal feelings into this instead of just administering the rules as written as the NFHS instructs us to do.

Really? And just where did I suggest that the official should administer anything beyond what the rules suggest? Did I suggest a flagrant T? Did I suggest a forfeit? No, I quite clearly said that the official is not empowered to do anything more than assess the penalty specified.
However the NFHS is, as far as I can recall, silent on the matter of what must, can, and should be reported to the state office. And on that point, you and I disagree.
If a coach is using video at halftime, and knows it's against the rules, he's blatantly cheating to gain an advantage. Your assertion that it's not because the Fed didn't make it a flagrant T is merely your inference, nothing more.
