They are being "penalized" for the ball reverting back to A for another throw-in (advantage to A in this scenario: they get to see the defensive set and get to adjust their throw in accordingly), as in the old rule. A then, on the throw-in following the violation, have their chance to make hay on their AP. Under the new rule, they get their throw-in opportunity AND keep AP. Ergo, I think this penalizes black too much, but that is just my opinion.
