What did Honda and Alpine do wrong?

Honda submitted a report with "incorrectly excluded and/or adjusted costs" while Alpine's report submission contained "significant deficiencies" including partial or no procedures being performed

Is that all?

Purposely excluding costs, or straight up lying about how much things cost, only gets a fine that's a drop in the bucket compared to what they'll make?

Alpines looks to be a complete balls up, as it traditional for Alpine and paperwork, I do not suspect any malicious intent here just plain old incompetence as is to be expected with Alpine. This is the company that made changes to their own version of Oscars contract to their advantage, seemingly forgetting that both the FIA and Mark Weber had their owned signed copies of the original.
