Are you sure about that??
My thought is that it is the rule to give it back to A.
A is originally due a throwin for some reason...an infraction. A gets the throwin due to the infraction unless another infraction occurs to supercede it.
Rule 6-3-3e: The ball becomes dead when neither team is in control and no goal or infraction or end of a quarter or extra period is involved.
If the whistle is blown before the throwin has been completed, an infraction is involved....the original infraction. A is still due a throwin for that infraction.

CB 7.5.4, R 4-12-6.

Agree. CB 7.5.4(c) to be a l'il more explicit.

How about CB 7.5.4(d) to be a l'il more explicit.....
"..even though, by rule, there is no team control during this dead-ball period, the ball would be given to (the thrower-in team)...The thrower-in team
would have clearly received the ball had the official not accidentally sounded his/her whistle."
I think this can be applied to this situation, it sounds like a common sense judgement/correction
(as illustrated by MTD's example of A1 still holding the ball OOB when the whistle sounds.)
