I've heard some discuss the "technical carry" (ball handler, all by himself, in the backcourt, looks at the coach for play and, distracted; inadvertently, and momentarily, carries the ball) as an advantage/disadvantage situation, but not the illegal "double" dribble. Probably because the illegal "double" dribble is so black, and white; while the carry requires a little bit more (gray) judgment.
