I'll give this a shot. Let's say you have 90 seconds to go in a tie game. Team A has just been awarded an alternating possession throw in. Team b only has 3 team fouls. Now, team a is handed the ball for the throw in and, under you scenario, the arrow has changed. Team b fouls. No harm done as they are still not in the penalty. Except team a has just lost their ap throw in rights. The next ap possession goes to team b.
I don't think anyone is advocating this.

What is being asked is "Why is a fould by Team A treated differently than a violation by Team A? Both are actions contrary to the rules, so A should (in the writer's opinion) lose the arrow under both circumstances."
