Some do, some don't.
The other problem is that when batting the roster (CBO) 7.14 is not in effect. Using CBO is mandatory in minors and optional in majors so it's possible no one really has any experience using the rule.
In the tournament there is an official scorekeeper and the umpires usually derer to them. If you watch the TV games you'll see the manager reporting it at the scorekeepers table with the PU standing there "supervising".
Yes - it should have been caught.
The penalty was, I believe, incorrect.
