Is it my right to decide this, I believe it is as long as I am consistent for both teams.
It also says that Irrespective of the number of personnel leaving the bench only 1 "T" is charged against the coach.
It's a foul and a DQ for each who leaves and does not participate. No matter how many of these there are, it's one indirect and one "set" of FTs for the other team.

It's a separate category for leaving and participating. It's still a foul and a DQ for each, but it's one indirect to the coach for each and one "set" of FTs for each.

In the play, there was one in each category. So, that's two "sets" of FTs and two indirects to the coach.
