Unless everyone reacts in a manner which seems EVERYONE ignored the call, I think this is one the blue just has to eat and take some heat over. If play just continued, you allow the result of the play and possibly take a little heat from the other side.
Just an opinion,

I like your thinking, here, Mike, kinda like the situation of a fair ball incorrectly called foul. Can't unring the bell and all that.
If I was going to apply 10-6-C in this situation, it would be a sticky one, for sure, - I'd have to judge what both the offense
and the defense would have done had I not caused them to relax.
But wouldn't it be better to apply the rule correctly as best as can be determined?
