Once when I was relatively new, and the more experienced PU killed the play immediately and we discussed in post game. Once when I was the experienced guy - and I killed the play ... and discussed post-game. And once when I was UIC at a tourney - the younger guys let play continue and no one protested so it didn't come to me... until the post game.

Seems this could clearly be written into the rules or at least be given a case play.
Killing the play feels right. But is there any rule support for it at all? I suppose it just becomes an inadvert call of time, but doing that on purpose feels somehow sketchy.
