The wording used is developed and approved by contest management, as scorers we just follow the guide lines.

Hi Ron

You are absolutely correct. Annex A Par. 8.7 List of Approved Penalties states under

Dangerous or hazardous flying
(entering forbidden airspace vertically or horizontally)
first Offence outlanded at point of airspace entry.

However I just personally feel that " Airspace violation " may have been a
more appropriate description of the penalty rather than the implied Hazardous
Maneuvre.
