My question is....why didn't the police try and obtain a blood sample if he wouldn't or couldn't give a proper breath sample? I know there are time issues involved but the more evidence the better.
Dude told me to keep blowing until it beeped. It took ~5 seconds...

And your second point is bang on. It should be a law at a traffic accident. If a proper breath sample is not given, call an ambulance immediately, ship the driver to the hospital and let a pro take a blood sample.
