I agree.

So I read this as no team in control and an infraction taking place (the reason why there was a whistle was the infraction). Once again strictly by definition this is the same as an unsuccessful shot in mid air.

I'm not sure what you're driving at, Kelvin. If you're just restating that, for the purposes of determining a POI, a released throw-in is the same as an unsuccessful try, then I agree, as I stated above.
However, the original situation that I was discussing is the case where the inbounder still has the ball when the double foul occurs. In this case, I think it's pretty clear that the POI is that same throw-in, b/c of the infraction that preceded it.
I don't think you need to be so concerned over the "and" portion of the rule.
