By rule, move backward as far as space (and time) allows.
By intent and purpose, rules must be intelligently applied in each play situation.
Intentional, or unintentional? Advantage, or disadvantage, and to whom?
Maybe it was a good thing that the official reset the administration of the inbound, probably preventing some unintended consequences?
If climbing on teammate to secure greater height is illegal, how about climbing on a chair, bleacher, volleyball ladder, wrestling mat, gymnastics mat, etc.?
T-worthy, or "Don't do that"?
