I think the big question that everyone seems to be dancing around is this.
In NFHS, is there such an animal as an "intentional technical foul?"
I don't recall reading about it, and I have never seen one issued.
The 2nd question, if there is one, why?
There is literally no difference in penalties. 2 shots by any shooter and ball at division line.

Suppose you don't have the IT foul.
Suppose you have contact that's not flagrant, but is worthy of a foul, during a dead ball.
What are you going to call?

A technical foul.

Fouls under 4-19-5a,b,c,d,f do not involve contact.
Fouls under 4-19-5c are ITs or FTs. That's the case presented above. If you didn't have an IT, and it wasn't an FT, you'd have nothing to call. So, we can't just drop the IT. Changing the definition of T to include contact while the ball is dead would be worse, imho.
