It is confirmed that a wrong number was provided to the official scorer and a change is made to reflect the correct number in the scorebook.
RULING: Both Team A and B are charged with a technical foul for changing a number in the scorebook and will begin the game with one team foul toward the bonus. No free throws are awarded and the game will begin at the point of interruption, which is the opening jump ball.
COMMENT: When each team is assessed one technical foul prior to the game, a double technical foul has occurred, as this is considered “approximately the same time.” (4-19-8b; 4-36-2c; 10-1-2) (See 6.4.1 SITUATION A)
Interesting reasoning. Especially when you go to the referenced case play.
6.4.1 Situation A:
"Twelve minutes before the game is scheduled to start, team member A1 dunks the ball and is charged with a technical foul. B1 is discovered to be wearing an illegal jersey, as the players prepare for the start of the game.
RULING: The game will be started by awarding Team B two free throws for A1’s technical foul. Team A will then be given two free throws and the ball for a division-line throw-in for B1’s infraction. When the thrower of Team A has the ball for the throw-in, they have control for purposes of establishing the alternating possession procedure and the arrow is immediately set toward B’s basket. Team B will have the first opportunity for an alternating-possession throw-in. (4-3)"

We need to think harder about the words used.
When a player dunks, that T is charged to him and indirectly to coach(during pregame) . That is more than a T charged to a team. It is more than a team T.Administrative Ts only go to the TEAM. If there are techs before game that are only charged to TEAM as opposed to individuals those will offset.
S the words used have specific meanings
