Now, if someone were to argue that the distance puts the ball in Team B's end zone and that results in a touchback, THEN I agree. But a potential enforcement spot that makes the next snap not possible (without further comment) to me, is unavailable.
What confuses the matter is your writing "enforcement spot". If it were a penalty, there'd be a half-the-distance enforcement. But it was pointed out to me that it's not a penalty, just a choice that the non-offending team has. It's like a spot of first touching, which also is not referenced as a penalty.
