You're clearly right that the play does not always unfold as it might at first appear. My only point in this thread is that if you judge that the shooting motion has started, and the player is fouled, then he's been fouled in the act of shooting. Anything that happens after that can't change that fact. The player returns to the floor without getting the shot off -- two FTs. The player dumps off a pass to a teammate -- two FTs.
Once he's been fouled in the act of shooting, he gets FTs, regardless of what happens after the foul.
