I wouldn't say it's idiotic. High School (and NCAA, I think) used to be the same way. When did the HS rule change? Late '80s?

I think the new rule is better, but obviously people used to think FIBA's way made sense. It prevents the unlikely secenario of an inbounder dropping the ball onto the playing court and nobody touching it for 8 minutes.
