Delay by Free Thrower - The calling offical has reported the foul and has given directions to the players along the lane. The official is ready to put the ball into play at free thrower A1's disposal, but A1 is at the sideline talking to the coach. RULING: A technical foul for delay is charged to A1. No warning is authorized in this situation. (10-3-6c)

This is a completely different situation than the one that we've been discussing. In this case play, the FT shooter has
never entered the FT semicircle. That's why it's a delay-of-game "T" under 10-3-6(c).
In the play we've been discussing, the FT shooter is already in the FT semicircle, but then left after receiving the ball or having it at their disposal. That's still a delay-of-game "T", but this "T" is called under a different rule- 10-3-6(a)- as already cited above.
Iow, apples and oranges.
