Actually, a 30 yard penalty would have different enforcement, since DPI would start being enforced half the distance at the A40!

Consider: ball at B45, pass play, DPI + intent. A 30 yard penalty would be enforced half the distance, A 1/10 @ B22.5.

If anyone in the history of high school football were ever to call this in an actual game: ball at B45, DPI + intent. Enforce DPI to the B30, then another 15 for intent, A 1/10 @ B15.

That said, the question is ridiculous. The foul is never called, and it's a fundamental (as CT1 points out) that penalties are 5, 10, or 15 yards.
