So on one of those unimpeded to the QB penalties, the offender usually takes a couple of extra steps toward the QB after the whistle. Should he get a penalty for doing a practice sack? That could intimidate the QB and affect his accuracy on future throws.

Once they ran out of bounds after the first play, they were sitting on the 48 facing a 65 yard FG with 2 timeouts they weren't going to have a use for. So why not burn one on the long FG 'trial' and if you see your kicker doesn't have the leg for it, you go out there and do the hail mary. I wouldn't use my last timeout on something like that, nor would I give up a pass play or time off the clock. But in the situation I just described, there's nothing to be lost by the effort.

Or a rule where if the defending team calls a timeout on a FG then they get a ten yard penalty or half the distance to the goal line.

There are any number of legitimate reasons to call a TO on a kick.

It's intended exclusively to see if your guy has the leg to get it there. It may not have been a big deal in this exact instance because they were in a climate controlled dome. But lets say it's a 62 yarder and you have a bit of a tailwind. Suddenly you're not exactly sure what your range may actually be. I really think this could be a useful trick one of these days.
