Poor mechanic or correctable error

If it was a 3, I know it was a 3, and I didn't signal, I am not going to change it if I go to the book and the scorer has a 3. That may not be the letter of the rule but I can't beleive the intent is take take the 3 out of the book when the scorer did the right thing.

Now, you can change it and by rule, you wouldn't be wrong but I'm not changing it.
