But if we treat first touching as akin to a penalty, that would still permit us to negate the IW, and for the same reason, right? |

With the penalty, everything that happens afterward ends up being disregarded anyway. (If the penalty is declined, you're back to replaying due to the IW) With first touching, you have no idea whether the "zero yard penalty" will be accepted. I suppose a "fair" way of navigating this would be to let the receiving team decide if they want to accept the first touching, or replay the down. I can see both sides of this.

OK, I suppose if K's kicker is really, really weak and has trouble getting the ball to go any distance at all, R might decline a spot of touching by K 9 yards into the NZ in the hope that his next kick won't even go that far. |

How about --- first touching on the 1. I'm taking the rekick if it's an option. Good luck pinning us there twice.
