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?

Ill let you be your own judge.
What I would have done is walk over to the table and ask the scorer(s) what is going on. This in a polite, but a little louder than normal, voice while pointing to the scoreboard. If they say it is 7 then in that same polite voice I would tell the clock that he should have signaled you when he changed the 6 to 7.
As for coach B, that is his problem. A situation has occurred that is a violation of the overall rules of the game, any game for that matter. I would be more inclined to apologies to coach A for this. In fact I would even call both of them to the table and explain what is what and shoot the 1 and 1. This is not a judgment call or an advantage/disadvantage call; it is a situation that must be corrected.
