Right, and this is because this was a "2004-05 Major Editorial Change[s]."

"4-11-1 Clarified that continuous motion applies to a try or tap for a field goal and free throws, when there is a foul by any defensive player, not just a defensive foul on the shooter."


Apparently, people were not calling this correctly.
Nevadaref,

What would you do if, during a free throw, A1 has started his shooting motion B1 fouls A2. You blow the whistle for the foul and A1 stops before he/she releases the ball. Would you give A1 another attempt?
Yes (6.7 B in the casebook.)

In my many years around basketball, however, I have never seen a foul called at this point during a FT.
