Do what you deem will suit the game situation.

Seems you did.
I recently had a CYO game where an opposing player showed up late that wasn't on their original list submitted. The coach reported the addition and I let him know I'd have to see what the officials said. Officials decided not to whack, and that was fine.

Conversely, I had a MS game where the coach had 3 or 4 numbers entered correctly. They passed on the first discovery (not a big deal), but when the other players are discovered, they don't want to whack either. I can understand the philosophy, but they coach still has a responsibility to get the names/numbers right. The officials did somewhat begrudgingly give the subsequent violation a whack and have the coach check her lineup for any other changes that needed to be made.

Don't the rules limit this to one "whack"?

I think Stat-Man was showing that the officials decided to get the coach over there and take care of other possible mistakes so the interruptions finally end and the game can go on.

Yes, they do. And this "whack" on the SUBSEQUENT violation could be that ONE, since they passed on the "whack" the first time around.
