Administering a false multiple

There's no definition of "simultaneous foul." So, we have to use the common definition of "happening at the same time."

If fouls happen at the same time, then they aren't common fouls, and no bonus is shot.

The play described meets the definition of a false multiple foul as per 4-19-12.

Agreed.

It doesn't meet the rules definition of either a simultaneous foul or a multiple foul.

The first isn't defined, and I agree it doesn't meet the definition of the second.

And rule 10: PENALTIES: (Rule 10 Summary) #5 on a false multiple foul states that each foul carries it's own penalty. Shouldn't we be trying to penalize both of these fouls by using those rules?

Yes. Shoot two for the shooting foul. Ball inbounds for the non-shooting foul.

I can't see any rules justification for having a tie and going to the POI.

Nor can I. That's why I didn't advocate going to POI.
