Secondly, I would recommend that there are 5 players on each team on the court, and not 10 in total as you suggest. What if A somehow had 6 players and B had 4? If the official has a brain fart, and doesn't notice this oddity, he will conclude that we may proceed as there are 10 players on the court.

So would you start the game after a timeout if black had 6 players on the floor? I would hope that common sense would prevail. Allowing 6 players on the court is a lack of concentration by the crew.... Something we don't have to deal with if we are doing our job.
