Since the ball was on the 26, and it's a 15 yard penalty, why would 1/2 the distance apply in that instance? I thought 1/2 the distance was only used when the full penalty could not be applied?

ETA: Think about it. If that were the way the rule worked, then a 15 yard penalty enforced at the 16-yard line would be placed at the 1. But a 15 yard penalty from the 14 would be spotted at the 7.
