I guess I could buy yourarguments if it was called the "alternating throw-in" procedure, but it's not...you would be taking away a possession that team is entitled to because the other team commits a foul - that's not right...might as well say that when A1 is dribbling the ball and B1 fouls him/her but it's not the bonus, we're gonna give B the ball oob because A had their possession and to call a foul on B and give A the ball back would be penalizing B twice...doesn't make sense in either situation...

It's not the same. The penalty for this foul is always a throwin for the fouled team, plus an addition to the team and player foul counts.
My point is that the arrow has served its purpose as soon as the ball is handed to A1, and giving A the next AP possession due to a foul on B during the ensuing throwin is tantamount to double-penalizing team B. You're giving A a throwin (or free throws) and the foul count *plus* the next AP throw-in; when they've already benefited from the AP arrow.
Now can you answer my question?
