That's right.

Canceling a score is in reference to making a call but not awarding the correct number of points that go with it.

Examples:
1. calling defensive goal-tending but canceling the score when it should be counted.
2. Calling a foul on a made shot but not counting the basket and giving the shooter 2 shots. That can be corrected by awarding the basket, then fixing the # of FTs as needed depending on when it was discovered.

The OP does provide an example of canceling a score, since the try was successful, just as in your examples.

The difference is that in your examples the canceling was incorrect.

No. In the OP, there was no score to cancel. A dead ball (due to the called violation, right or wrong) went through the basket. A dead ball can't score. Nothing to cancel as it never happened. They got the violation wrong, but that isn't correctable, even if it leads to the prevention of a score.
