That was my take also.

The only definition that I'm aware of that can be made to fit is that of a false multiple foul. And I'm not aware of any ruling that tells us definitively how to administer false multiple fouls when both fouls comprising it occur at basically the exact same time.

Good question by Scrappy but imo there really isn't a definitive answer rules-wise re: the order that we should administer the fouls.
