I'm aware of the rule. Is the spirit and intent of the rules intended to be that the entire official's body to be considered backcourt/OOB even if he's in some kind of staggered stance and only his heel is touching the division line or boundary line?

Do the rules makers really intend for us to call it out of bounds if the ball hits two feet inside the court just because part of the official is touching the sideline?

I'm talking about real world application.

So I am asking for you to tell me if you would call (or have called) a BC violation in the OP.
