Changing starters in Home book

Sat night, GV contest. Home scorer didn't mark correct starters in book. Mistake was caught during introductions. My partner and I had discussion at table and I thought that we should start game with T against home team and my partner felt that we should ask visiting team to just start the game with starters listed in book, which we didn't. Ultimately we corrected starters and went on with jump. I know that this isn't how we should have handled it and discussed it at our assoc meeting on Sunday. My partner felt that if visiting scorer wrote starters and roster in home book then we couldn't penalize home team with T. I thought that since home scorer is admitting that she copied them wrong then it should be a t against home team.

Both teams agreed to just change them and start and thats what we did. I would have liked to go with my gut instinct of T against home team.

With all that said- if home scorer writes starters wrong in book whats the penalty? b) what if visiting team writes roster and starter in home book and then there is a mistake?
