The only held-ball situation where this rule doesn't apply is the case where the thrower holds the ball through the plane- and the defender then grabs it, causing a held ball. In that case, the throw-in didn't end because the thrower still had the ball. R4-42-5 says that also, and case book play 6.4.5SitB outlines that specific situation.
LOL I got all confused after reading the posts again and again. I realize now that the post you replied to was dumb. I'll go delete it now.
