Causing the ball to go OOB on the jump ball would mean the shot clock never started, yet we still set it to 20 seconds if the throw-in is adjacent to the FC.

It's illogical, but that's the rule that's there, so I'll enforce it that way if I work NCAA men's ball.
JRut, are you saying that NBA officials, both male and female, tend to come from the women's college ranks? That's a surprise, but with the rules aligning between NCAAW, that makes sense in some weird way.
Anyway, the jump ball violation would have both AP and shot clock implications.
