Would make more sense if the C informed the Lead that the scorer incorrectly counted the goal. That would be helpful and a worthy contribution to the play.

Unless a partner comes in with a preliminary signal indicating no shot or verbally states so, I don't see an issue with the issue of simply stating that the ball went in. Many a time, you'll have a partner that's so concentrated with getting the correct number/shooter/making sure nothing extracurricular happens that they don't know if the ball goes into the basket or not. I'd just view it as extra information with which the calling official can choose to use or not.
