Actually, I look at it differently. The foul does change the arrow. In my view, a foul on B during the throwin costs them the next arrow.
In Iowa girls ball, the arrow changes as soon as the ball is handed to the inbounder. The only practical difference is when there's a foul by B during the throw in. In boys, B loses the next arrow. Girls recognize that all the action is a result of the throw in, which is a result of the AP arrow. Once the player gets the ball for the throw in, the AP arrow has served its purpose.
