While I appreciate the effort, Camron Rust's interpretation doesn't match what 9.12 SITUATION A actually states, and that's all we have to go on in this current 2020-21 casebook play.
Where does it state that B1 entered before the release?
It actually doesn't state that. No actual free throw violation is described here, so no need for a delayed violation signal.
If 9.12 SITUATION A actually did occur as Camron Rust extrapolated ("B entered before the release") in his
crystal ball and interpreted, his explanation is spot on (defensive violation before release, live ball, delay violation signal, goaltend, dead ball, delayed violation ignored, count free throw because of the goaltend, A1 gets bonus free throw (with lane cleared), subsequent technical foul penalties (free throws, division line opposite table)).

Agree, but 9.12 SITUATION A is a 2020-21 casebook play, and in 2020-21 we wait for the release, not the hit,
been that way for six years, certainly time enough for the NFHS to edit the casebook play.

Stupid NFHS.
When the NFHS considers a rule change, it must consider all other rules and interpretations that may be impacted. It's spelled out right there on the rule change suggestion form.
