Question

Alright all you referee junkies, here's the situation:

-HS Girls Varsity game ~ Semi-final State Tournament
-Team A head and shoulders above the rest of the field,
could compete with most NAIA Women's teams.
-Team A up by 30 with about 4 minutes left in the game.
-A1 shoots a three from the top of the key, nothin' but net ~
-B1 knocks A1 down boxing out, well after A1 had returned to the floor, but before the dead ball.
-Coach B is used to winning, frustrated to no end, and thinks that Team A is running up the score ~ Not Happy.
-You report the foul on the floor and score the basket for 3.
-You think it should be a bonus, scorer says 6.
-Switch, and your partner inbounds ball to Team A on the sideline ~ scoreboard still says 6.
-Team A Throws the ball in, makes 3 passes and throws the ball away on the baseline.
-You're ready to inbound the ball as the new trail, look at the time and notice the scoreboard now says 7.
-Coach A is oblivious, as is Coach B, your partner, and the entire crowd.
-You know the situation, and how to handle it by the book, you also know that as soon as you hand the ball to B1 for the throw-in, the time frame for correcting the error is over. In an effort to maintain what little flow you have to this game, you say nothing and quietly hand the ball to B1.

Here's the Question~
Have you just contributed to a healthy flow by not rubbing salt in the wound of Team B and showing off your rules knowledge, or have you committed a serious breach of ethics by setting aside a rule?
