I'm not convinced it's so clear. To me, "it is too late to penalize" states very clearly that if the officials aren't notified at the right time, it can't be penalized.
Unless you think that statement "clearly" refers to a situation when the officials are told but choose to ignore it only to want to penalize it later.
