There are three problems with calling it a false double foul.

1- Brian says the whistles were simultaneous.

2- To have a FDF, you have to determine which foul occurred first.

3- If you determine which foul occurred, then you have determine if the second foul is intentional or flagrant. If it's not intentional or flagrant, it must be ignored.

4-19-1 Note
Contact after the ball has become dead is ignored unless it is ruled intentional or flagrant or is committed by or on an airborne shooter.
