It clearly states 10-2a and 10-2e are to be penalized when discovered. It also clearly states 10-2b, c, and d are to be penalized when they occur.

"Once the ball becomes live, it is too late to penalize" is pretty clear. Now, if you can think of another instance when this might come into effect, other than when the scorer does it without telling you, I'm listening.

If the committee wanted us to be able to penalize this whenever we discovered it, they would have said penalized when discovered. How much more clarity do we need?
