Because the ball will not remain live on a miss (no opportunity to rebound) on the last White free throw for the shooting foul. Same thing for the subsequent series of technical foul free throws.

Same reason we, as the trial, don't hold up our hand to chop in time on such free throws (although I will sometimes absentmindedly do so).

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
