By that reasoning, there is even more onus on A1 not to take the free throws since he was not fouled. But his team is not "punished" the way it is in the first scenario. And if it is the home table that gave the officials the bad information...and the visitors lose both the free throws and the ball?

Either way, the rules don't speak to "onus."
