A2 in the opposite corner of the court along the same end line in the backcourt waits for the ball to bounce a second time INBOUNDS on the court and then picks it up.

Do you think that this is legal as well?
Although I understand the point you are making, this is a little different because the ball is dead instantly on the OOB violation, but there is no violation until the ball is touched by a player in a BC violation. If there was the mandate that a ball thrown OOB be touched before the call was made, I'm sure we would have people coming in asking the same thing about OOB calls.
