The difference here is that you noticed you mistyped the call and had it
wrong.
My instance was in the 10 meter contest this weekend when a ZL station
gave me QSO B4 and there was nothing in my log even close to his call.
W7WHO was also in the contest so it could be that his SCP pulled that
call out or something. Cost me a Q and a mult. Now he'll get a NIL.
Luckily I worked another ZL later for the mult. 73

I had an interesting exchange on 10m CW this past weekend. I was in
S&P mode and came across a station, typed in his call, and sent my
call. He came back with his next serial number but appended "B4" at
the end. Sure enough, I had mistyped his call sign so it did not show
up as a dupe in my logger. I sent "R SRI" and I got back an "E E". I
went on my way with only a few seconds lost to my typo. Obviously that
was a seasoned operator on the other end and this worked out well.
