I'm wondering if therule wording in red below was added at the same time as when the case play intepretations went away?

9-2-2 Throw-In Provisions: The ball shall be passed by the thrower directly into the court from out-of-bounds so it touches or is touched by another player (inbounds or out of bounds) on the court before going out of bounds untouched.
