I still say that you are letting them off the hook. Handled your way, there is no real downside to the unsporting action.
Sure there is....they wanted 5+ seconds off the clock, and legally could get 5. By me blowing the whistle, they get 1-2 only. That's what they lose. Not a big punishment, but one nonetheless.
