Unusual Situation - Did we get it right?

I had an unusual situation this evening and would like some opinions
as to whether we got it right or not.

During the introductions of the starting lineups prior to the game it
was discovered that BOTH teams had number errors in the book. This is
easy if it were only one team, and there is reference in the case book
to one team having an error, but I can't find anything that
specifically addresses errors by both teams.

Here is how we handled it. Since both errors were discovered during
introductions, I considered this to be a simultaneous technical foul.
By rule, there are no free throws for simultaneous fouls and play is
resumed at the point of interuption. Since play hadn't started yet, I
considered the POI to be the jump ball and that is how we started the
game. Each team was charged with a team foul, which effectively
allowed both teams to shoot the bonus one foul sooner than normal.

Was this correct? The problem I have with the way we handled it is
that there was no real penalty to either team for the errors. Would
anyone have treated this differently?
