The penalty isn't doubled, if the arrow isn't changed. They don't get the arrow taken away from them. If A inbounds the ball legally, even if B gets the ball legally, A has then used the arrow, and B gets the arrow.

What happens if B kicks the ball on the inbounds is that A gets penalized. Not because A made a bad basketball play, but because B violated. Why am I the only one that thinks that's unfair?

It's an exact parallel to losing or keeping the privilege of running the baseline. If B kicks the ball on the inbounds pass after a made basket, A gets that privilege back. How is keeping the arrow any different?
