Hmmmm

Not really sure why the experiment, but a couple of thoughts already. Personally, at first glance, I like the rule, but the IW does come into play.

On this caseplay....
K is attempting a PAT from the B-3 yard line. The kick is blocked in the neutral zone, and then continues into BÂ’s end zone. The ball is downed in the B end zone by: a) A1 or b) B1
RULING: a) Touchdown, award K 2-points, in b) the result of the play is a touchback and therefore the try is unsuccessful.

How can this be a touchdown? The ball became dead when it broke the plane?? Plus, wouldn't this be first touching if A recovered it? Also, how can they justify enforcing both fouls at the succeeding spot? Just random thoughts...
