Subjective Judgement Call ...

I see your point.
If a ball handler simply sticks his arm out without making any contact, that's nothing.
However if the ball handler sticks his arm out, and makes contact, then it becomes a subjective judgement call and one has to consider advantage and disadvantage (I actually viewed this as incidental contact, as did 34% of my IAABO colleagues).
If the extended arm prevents the defender from going somewhere he wants to go, it's a player control foul.
What made this play so difficult was that the defender was so passive.
