Correctable errors suck
That is clearly and irrefutably true!

There was no change of team possesion AFTER the error (there is no team control during FT).
I think that is just as clearly false. One way to know if there is team control is to determine whether there is player control. Player control is defined as any player holding or dribbling a live ball inbounds. The ball becomes live when the FT shooter receives it for his shot(s). The FT shooter is holding the ball inbounds, the ball is live, therefore he has player control. Therefore there is team control, until he releases the try.

So unless you were being very specific in your use of the word "during" (meaning, "while the ball is in flight"), I think that you're wrong about that.
