Because the exceptions apply during the jump ball or throw-in and don't apply once that is over. While you need TC to have a BC violation, it's not relevant to the distinction between the plays.

Are we saying of a jumpball if B2 tipped and tehn A1 caught theball in midair and landed in backcourt from frontcourt then that would be a backcourt violation?

Yes.

One of the issues here is that I (at least) cannot tell whether you are asking what the rule is, or are debating what the rule should be.
