Did they just make an editorial screw-up or did they really intend to change the rule? I trust that Howard has the proper contacts to get the proper answers.

Nevada, think about it. Everything falls into place now, rules-wise.
Do you consider the status of a player to be the same as where they are standing?
ANSWER:Yup.
What status does a player have when they're standing OOB?
ANSWER: Well...they're OOB.
What happens if a thrower throws a throw-in OOB without it touching a player in-bounds first?
ANSWER: You go back to the original throw-in spot.
Makes sense to me- logically. They're just treating the OOB player as being the same as the floor OOB.
