I don't think a quick explanation re: how or what penalty/bonus was incurred/awarded would slow matches down. There is always down time as robots are collected or set up on the field between matches. The educational benefit for spectators and teams would be great. It would cut down on misunderstandings on just how final scores were arrived at. It is valuable hearing explanations why flags are thrown in other sports.
