Take it up with the rules committee. The "intent" requirement is not there to allow for calls on overly physical fouls. Example, player B1 goes for the ball, but with abandon, and plows over A1 trying to shoot a layup. Intentional foul.
We're not talking about a court of law here. Intent is not the only criterian we have, otherwise we'd be calling intentional fouls the entire last 2 minutes of a 10 point game.
