Penalty  assessments are not loss of other properly recorded QSOs.  The
penalty  assessment is points reduced in your final computed score.  This  
is
simply a rule, in some contests, to reward accuracy a bit  more.

How do you, or the contest sponsor, know whether an incorrectly  logged QSO
is due to a typing error or a copying error?

Even if that  were feasible, why is a typing error more accurate than a
copying  error?

My heartburn is with the loss of OTHER (properly recorded)  Q's as
retribution for that  error.
