I do have a question about the new rule permitting an incorrect throw-in to be fixed.
“7-6-6: Allows the official administering a throw-in to the wrong team to correct the mistake before the first dead ball after the ball becomes live unless there is a change of possession. Rationale: Allows for a correction of an official's mistake in a more reasonable timeframe.”
Why does it have to be only the administering official who can correct this? I hope that it will be worded such that any of the officials can do so.

I don't think they're intentionally restricting it to just one official even if the wording seems to suggest that.
