I'm not sure if this is the precise rule or not, but I like it. It does indeed seem to be the least harm.
Also, I would never kill a hand for this infraction, even if it's a repeated offense. There might be other penalties, but not a dead hand.
However, when I first saw the discussion, my thought was to immediately expose the cards, so I don't think I would fault that ruling either. It just seems better to wait until the betting gets back around to the raiser, or until the round of betting ends.
