The points that you make are right, but are not relevant to this particular play. In JohnBark's description of the play above, he said that B2 broke the OOB plane and then slapped the ball out of A1's hands when A1 was OOB and in possession of the ball. The key words are B2 "broke the plane of the OOB" before touching the ball.
