I've always thought inside the 10, they should move the chains
So a 15 yard penalty on the 8 would not move the ball, but would move the first down line from the 18 to the 33.

it's always the spot on an intentional grounding, so the spot.

At some point, it has to become half the distance

It's not about being "too mean", it's about proportionate punishment

The distance has to be changed at some point.

That's an interesting suggestion. I could consider that.

So if a 15 yard penalty happens at the 14 yard line

I agree. I've always wondered this, too. I was hoping to read an argument here
