A false double foul is a situation in which there are fouls by both teams, the second of which occurs before the clock is started following the first, and such that at least one of the attributes of a double foul is absent.
If the rule said OR, I would agree with you. But it says AND, which means all three criteria must be met. I like the sound of simultaneous fouls much better, don't you?

You're right abou the and/or thing, but why aren't all three of the criteria met? They couldn't have really been simultaneous, if you think about it cosmologically, so the FDF fits.
Besides there are no provisions in the rule book for Simultaneous Fouls. It's not dealt with at all so the FDF is the best choice from what's available, isn't it?
