If the esteemed member who answers this good question could include an explanation of what all that "attribute" stuff is all about, I'd sure appreciate it.

Not sure if this explanation helps, but this sorta does it for me:
What makes these easy for me is to think of the "false" part in comparison to what we'll say is "true". "True" would be if the first foul of a double or multiple foul occurred at the same time as the second. That would be penalized one way. "False" would be if the second foul of double or multiple foul occurred with a time interval of some length after the first. That would be penalized in the order of their occurrences.

Am I on the right track?
I think the biggest difference between false and "true" is that the clock doesn't start in between. Ie- a true double foul would be two players that foul each other at the same time. Whistle sounds, report a personal foul for each player, penalties offset so you go to point of interruption. The false double foul would be when A fouls B when B gets up they push A earning a technical foul. No time has come off the clock between fouls but it wasn't during the same incident. In this case you penalize in the order of occurence, including shooting FTs at one end then going to the other for the technical FTs. A would then get ball at division line. I think I have this all figured out but correct me if I am wrong.
