Not following proper mechanics got them into this mess, by not following the rules won't get them out of it. I can't agree that two-wrongs make a right.
I read the original play as the shooter had already gained possession when the L blew the inadvertent whistle. If that's true then the shooter's team keeps the ball. If it's not true then you go to the AP since there's no ball possession.
