I think they may be just correcting the erroneous interpretation that has been out for a few years. A deflection by B that goes directly to A who is already in the backcourt shouldn't have ever been considered a violation but someone on the committee that is apparently ESL thought it was. Now they're changing a rule to mean what it always meant.
Agreed. Seems to me that if A touches after B and ball goes into backcourt, if A touches, it will still be a backcourt
