I'm willing to bet scorers don't all track that. In 29 years I've never once seen a team argue that subs were improper after halftime.

I have denied subs entry, but those are ones who come to the table after a warning horn OR try to reenter without sitting a tick.
If I am aware of the situation or am made aware by the scorer, I would enforce the rule. For example, if I know that a certain player was in the game because he made a buzzer beater at the end of the previous quarter or fouled near the horn, I look to see if that kid starts the next quarter unless properly substituted.
