(Pedant bit of FUN warning)
Over the last 2 months GM have bn covering yellow and red penalty area rules
Yellow 2 oprions red 3 options .. ok it does say under penalty of 1 stroke .. but neither month does it mention playing as it lies . I usuaky tell peoplr u have 3/4 options curious as to what ur answer
would b if asked ..
ON A DIFF NOTE
One of the rules quiz question asks if u point & touch line 4bbb partners line of putt no pen once u dont improve condition of the stroke . How is this as u can now repair spike marks etc urself so why not ur partner . Thanks

1 can be down to the context ie you have a number of relief options which are generally less than your complete option set e.g. in a match, and the situation you outline, you have yet another 2 options not listed st that rule (or by your extended inclusion) as you can pick up and concede the hole, or concede the match!
2 can't understand your question ?

Rule 13.1 overrides Rule 10
13.1 Purpose of Rule: This Rule allows the player to do things on the putting green that are normally not allowed off the putting green, such as being allowed to mark, lift, clean and replace a ball and to repair damage and remove sand and loose soil on the putting green.
