Fine, come up with an example where it actually makes sense to accept the penalty. Be that way.
And, IMHO, there should ALWAYS be a bean bag on a fumble. Even if it can't be an enforcement spot.
However, there are two times where I won't throw my bean bag on a fumble:
1) As an Umpire, if the ball carrier fumbles inside the 5 yard line going in. (I don't know if the wing has the ball in the end zone already or not, and I don't want my bean bag on the ground when the H and L are signaling a touchdown).
2) As an U, H, or L, when we have a fumble-or-incomplete-pass situation by the quarterback. I let the R live and die with his call... if he has a fumble, he needs to bean-bag that spot.
