In checking rule 10, basic spot, I can find no instance where the basic spot is the "spot of the foul". To save space, I did not quote the entire rule, just the beginning of each article.
SECTION 4 BASIC SPOTS
ART. 1 If a foul occurs during a down, the basic spot is determined by the action that occurs during the down....
ART. 2 The basic spot is the previous spot....
ART. 3 The basic spot is the spot where the kick ends....
ART. 4 The basic spot is the spot where the related run ends....
ART. 5 The basic spot is the succeeding spot:
ART. 6 The basic spot is the 20-yard line....
ART. 7 The basic spot is the goal line....
