By the literal reading of the rule, yes.

Is that not in injustice if the C does not call the second touch that he did not even know there was a first touch?
Yes, that's why I said it's unenforceable.

You really think the rules makers had that as the intention? And if that is their position, why did they not just come out and give that as an example since it is so clear to everyone? I do not work Two man, so this situation is very likely in my world.

I find trying to read the minds of the rule committee to be an exercise in futility. I will readily agree with you that they often don't want the rules enforced the way they write them.
