How do you figure this has any bearing on whether the league can punish the team? Players get fined and suspended all the time for on-field activities that weren't flagged.

I've heard "irrelevant" isn't a word (sorry, inside joke), but whether it was flagged couldn't be less relevant when it comes to whether or not the league can punish.
