In my 2014 law book 21.3
a Anu player may take a penalty or free kick with any type of kick ...
b bouncing the ball off the knee is not taking a kick
Sanction Any infringement by the kickers team results in a scrum at the mark. The opposing team to throw in.
c: The kicker must use the ball in play, unless the referee declares it defective
Sanction Any infringement by the kickers team results in a scrum at the mark.
21.2 is about where the kick is taken. a: covers normal penalties, b is in goal. There is a sanction of a scrum, but due to the way it is worded, it appears the scrum is always 5m from the goal line in line with the mark. c permits for a quickly taken kick from the wrong place to be brought back and taken again - that is marked in green as being a change.
So I do not believe the sanction was added in 2021, it was incorrectly removed in 2020 (or perhaps earlier)
