Sorry if I confused you moving back and forth from offensive to defensive goaltending on free throws.
They are from the past.
"A player touches the ball outside the cylinder during a free-throw attempt" was added to the definition of goaltending in 1981.
What makes them bizarre is that no technical foul is called (as was the rule back then), but also the bizarre inbound spot (Cadillac position well after such free throw line extended Cadillac position for balls that entered the basket but did not count was eliminated).

These past interpretations are dumpster fires.
My point was that, at least two times in the past, the NFHS did care about the act of offensive goaltending of a free throw.
