Since we're all quite capable of differentiating between a jump pass at half-court and a jump shot in the paint, your analogy falls short.
If B1 fouls A1 so hard he decides he can't get a good shot off, and we issue a common foul; we've just allowed B1 to gain an advantage with the foul.
I'm convinced now that we have to go with our instinct on this. Most of us have seen (and taken) enough jump shots to know what they look like.
