Under American (NFL) rules, defensive and offensive holding are treated differently, but current maindata file has one rule for all holding penalties.

On offense should be 10 yards and repeat down.
On defense, should be 5 yards (or is it 10?) and automatic first down.

I'm sure there are going to be more urgent issues but would be good to get this modified at some point in the future.

Yes, those are correct.

All the holding penalties in the database are on the offensive side of the ball only. That's why they're all the same.
