After a spot is moved by penalty, can the team scored on rescind their choice of kicking or receving?

You would think.

I would actually guess not, but to my knowledge there is absolutely NO guidance on this (ridiculously obscure) question.

If they can, which I doubt, how would it work w.r.t. half the distance enforcements? Would you go back to the other team's 40 and apply all the distances serially again? If you just moved the spot 20 yards and reversed the kick-or-receive, because of half-the-distance enforcements it wouldn't always produce the same results as rewinding and starting over. That distinguishes this situation from an in-the-pocket choice of free kick or snap following a fair catch.

No.
