Then don't think of it as being penalized. The purpose of the arrow isn't used for penalties. The AP arrow just serves to avoid using the ole jump ball.
But if you still want to think of it in that light, isn't A penalized the old way? They have an AP throw in that was lost because of a violation on B (kick).
