Stress Test ...

A1 is required to remain out of bounds until releasing the throw-in pass. When A1 touches an inbounds player, he/she has inbound status. However, if the contact on B1 is illegal, a personal foul shall be called. (9-2-10 Note)

At this point either A1 or any of his teammates can now move out of bounds, pick up the ball, and make a throw-in pass. So the above requirement is false for this situation, and since it isn’t true for all situations, it is false.

Excellent post. I agree. Like me, Nevadaref likes to use extreme examples to put rule language to a test.
In this situation, 9-2-10-Note fails the "stress test".
