Agree completely.

Bottom line--you have 3 options:
1) call the foul.
2) ignore the foul and call the violation.
3) ignore the foul and also don't call the violation.

If you ignore the foul and call the violation, you just screwed the offensive team. If you ignore the foul and don't call the violation, you just screwed the defensive team. The only way that you don't screw anybody is to just call what happened.
