All things aside, why did the officials go to the possession arrow on a 10 second backcourt violation?
Because the official thought that two wrongs make a right. He really didn't have a 10 second backcourt violation, but since he called it anyway and no one had team control (which is why he couldn't legally call it in the first place), he went to the arrow.
I don't think there is any perfect answer to the problem.
