Make that a 15 yarder and an automatic 1st down and maybe reeling defensive players would think twice before cheating.

As you said, it isn't called 9 times out of 10, so 5 yards or 15 yards is irrelevant since it isn't being called. As it was, there was a penalty and, more importantly, the clock stopped. I'm sure the player who got that penalty heard about it. It isn't the yardage, it's the clock.
Olshansky getting ejected was the right call, but in his defense, was the centre the only guy who actually threw a block on the spike?
