Is this a fair assessment...
The scorekeeper gave erroneous information to the officials who relayed the information to the coach in an effort to use 'preventative officiating'.
At some point after that, the scorekeeper made a change to their book which recorded a timeout by the team that was ultimately penalized.
But, what we know for sure is that the scorekeeper failed to follow 2.11.6
Art. 6... Record the time-out information charged to each team (who and when) and notify a team and its coach, through an official, whenever that team is granted its final allotted charged time-out.
They did not notify the coach through the officials when they had used their last time out.
Despite this failure by the scorekeeper, the team is assessed the technical foul for requesting (and being granted) a timeout when they had none available.
Bottom line it just a "life is hard" moment for the team that is affected by this error. No recourse by rule. Correct?
