Didn't we just go through this question regarding Roughing the Passer? The reason "Roughing" penalties carry additional penalty is the added exposure and vulnerability of Passers, Kickers, Holders and Snappers related directly, and exclusively, to their function.
Essentially ALL Personal Fouls, directed to those specifically protected players covered by "Roughing" penalties, are and should well be, Roughing penalties, subject to the additional penalties designated.
NFHS: 9-4-5-a through d, itemize the exceptions (b, c & d would apply to "tipped" kicks)
