Also not a Tech if the home book just changes the number and doesn't tell the officials until later.

I can certainly see the point that this could create some "unfairness" if the home book acted one way for the home team and one way for the visitors, but I don't see it happening often enough to be a big concern.

If there is a visitor book shouldnt they have caught this and reported it to the officials? Is this why you want to have your own book to catch mistakes like this?

A visitor's book could certainly have caught this, but this is a pretty unusual event. More common things that get caught are score and number of fouls. When I was keeping books, the most common error was PFs (or techs) not also getting marked as TFs, and (less often) points given to the player but not the running count.
