Bad Situation, How Should It Be Handled?

[Rookie]

You don't understand me. I meant that redoing the ENTIRE play, from where the mistake was made, would be the easiest thing to do, and it would also make everyone happy. The everyone happy part is just a little bonus.

You either don't get it or don't want to get it. One thing I have learned about officiating, the easiest thing to do, is usually not the right/legal thing to do.

BTW, I did not mean to belittle the responsibilities of the scorekeeper, obviously the score keeper and time keeper are very important to the game.
