I don't really like it either, but I can see the justification.
I just received the Simplified and Illustrated Rulebook and I want to know how this play is any different than the ruling the NF gives on page 111.

This play has A4 who is the thrower during a throw-in passes the ball to A10 who is standing the FC. The throw-in pass bounces off of A10 and goes into the BC. According to this ruling, this is not a BC violation because there was no team control established

Peace
