Simple enough. But what if on this play A1 takes 7 steps after he is fouled by B1 and before he releases the ball? If the travel causes the ball to become dead, we are not ignoring the rule which allowed it to remain alive, are we?
Then that's not continuous motion. And, it's not the same play (it's more akin to a "false double foul" then to a "double foul.")
