Because the foul occurs behind the basic spot, All but One, and in the end zone, result is a safety.
I agree with a rule change as A is rewarded two points for throwing an interception.
Thanks for the help.

Well, we told you that above.
And I think it's a perfectly fine application of the rules. Holding in the end zone has consequences.
I'm much more annoyed about using all-but-one on offensive penalties behind the line of scrimmage -- 10 yards from the previous spot is more than enough for a holding penalty, for example. And I'd love to be able to apply K fouls at the end of kicks like in NCAA football.
