Agreed, but it seems sort of screwy. Can't understand why the mechanic isn't reversed so that the L and T are already opposite, as that's what will happen on the throw-in anyway.

In a) you instruct the players that they MUST stand behind the division line, and Team A Coach tells his/her players to stay put (he doesn't say anything to you); and in b) you instruct the players that they MUST stand behind the division line, and Team A Coach begins to argue with YOU that you are wrong. In BOTH instances the players from Team A do not move to the division line as you instructed. What do you do?
You DON'T do that to begin with. You have no basis, no rules backing, no business doing that. Why not follow the rules and mechanics and avoid the entire situation?
