And, it isn't a PROPER resuming situation; B has not had a proper amount of time to get to the lane positions.
I think the officials error trumps the resuming procedure. If A misses the first FT, then A just blew their one and only chance at that FT in my opinion.

Well, it's not a resuming play sitch at all, it's a major
screw up by the lead who put the ball at the FT'ers
disposal (notice I did not say "put the ball in play"
).
But this is a minor point. Let's think about this. If A1's
attempt is a valid attempt (ie the ball was live) then why
hasn't B violated by not occupying the spaces underneath?
Does the L's screw-up invalidate the rules governing FT's?
