A technical foul for a player to purposely or deceitfully
delay returning after legally being out of bounds has been around for many, many years.
How is this a change?
The rule about a player intentionally leaving the court for an unauthorized reason (not legally being out of bounds to better use a screen, or to avoid three seconds) being a violation has also been around for many, many years.

Violation every day the week, been that way for many, many years.
I'm not sure if there was an actual recent change, and if so, exactly what the change is?
Have unintentionally (momentum) and purposely (intentionally) been combined as a violation if said player is the first player to touch the ball after returning inbounds?
If so, why add the word "purposely" to the comments on the 2023-24 rule 9-3-3 change?
