Two scenarios

I don't believe the official's jurisdiction has anything to do with this play. If it did, the score could easily be changed. When we say the score is verifed, we're saying that the scoreboard matches the book, everyone knows who wins and we're outta here. That's usually the extent of verifying the final score. I would still like to hear from Bob on what the author of the quiz was baseing his information on.

Bob, where are you?

Not to beat this to death but I think jurisdiction and
score verification is the point. I agree that verification
almost always means making sure the book matches the
scoreboard but it can also mean making sure the book itself
is correct. This case is where the scoreboard (oops,
I should have said scorebook is incorrect) is
incorrect. There's also guidance on this in NCAA women's
mechanics, where the officials are required to stick around if the final score differential is 4 points or less.
Granted, this is done to ensure that no *timing* mistakes
have been made, but this might be extended to include 2-10
issues as well. It sure would be good to have the quiz
author's opinion on this.
