If a scoring mistake is made, not as a result of any decision by the officials on the court, but solely due to the scorer making a mistake, this does not qualify as a correctable error. It is simply a bookkeeping mistake.

Are you saying the statement was true?

[just another ref]

Scorers correct their own mistakes all the time, without even notifying the officials. 2-11-11 deals with a discrepancy between two books. In this situation there may not have even been a mistake anywhere except in the visitor's book, which is not the referee's concern.

Because the rule clearly says the REFEREE is the one who corrects any discrepancies in the book. It doesn't say the nearest official or any official who is notified.
Also the REFEREE is the person who designates the official book (2-4-3) and approves the halftime score (2-5-7), and the final score (2-5-7, 2-11-11). The book is under the purview of the REFEREE.
