My Defensive coordinator immediately apologized to the officials for the substitution. All the official needed to say was “It takes me 3 mins to count to 12 and I wouldn’t have gotten there without your help.” So, the flaw with this rule is some crews never would allow a substitution penalty to become a participation penalty because they know how to count and others will never call a substitution penalty because they are unreasonably slow. The slow crews need to shut it down.
