Is this based on anything in a rule book or a mechanics book or is this just how it is done in your area?

Logic would dictate that on a TO, there is no requirement for the officials so switch, so after the TO, they should stay in their same positions, therefore, I think that Mr. Denucci is saying that you administer the throw-in from whereever allows the Trail official to stay in the same position after the TO.
What difference does it make? We'd be moving from the top of the arch or the block opposite to go to the huddle at the first horn anyway, so at least one official is moving back across the court.
