Also, it was mentioned it evens out the fairness too.

Backcourt. (Rule 9-12.5). Permits either team to be the first to touch the ball in
the backcourt when a pass or any loose ball in the front court is deflected by the defense which causes the ball to go into the backcourt even if the offense was the last to touch the ball in the front court.

Thanks,
New rule. If defense tips the ball and the ball touches or is touched by an offensive player in the FC, offense may still retrieve the ball in the BC.
