You are 100% correct, my language did not clearly communicate my point effectively. Your explanation is right on.

Accidental or otherwise, refs would be prudent to watch out for and enforce <G19> more stringently the rest of the way.

Assuming you are talking about the kick at 56:16 in the video I believe this is another case of the opposing alliance not being able to force you into a penalty. 1114 and 2809 were fighting back and forth and 1114 managed to get pointing straight down the field, 2809 hits their corner and spins them towards the side of the field right as they fire off the kick.
