It isn't stupidly honest, it is scrupulously honest. No, it didn't affect his play. Yes, it WAS a rules violation. Yes, he was on the honor system. No, probably no one would have called him on it.
But, as many a person has said before, character is what you do when no one is watching. In basketball, it isn't a player's job to self report a foul or a goaltend. In football, it isn't a player's job to self report a penalty, or a fumble, or a dropped ball. In baseball, it isn't a player's job to self report to running outside the bases, or a dropped ball. In golf, it is all on the player to be honest. And even to err on the "maybe" side of a mistake.
