I've been told that the ball is inbounded on the side near the division line because this would give Team B unfair advantage taking the ball out under their basket.

As you have already read, this is not the case and please tell whoever told you that to read a rulebook once in a while. Besides, I think his reasoning is faulty anyway. In my experience, teams usually have many more inbound plays from under their own basket than they do from midcourt. I bet if you polled the howler monkeys, they would tell you that, given a choice, they would prefer the ball on the endline.
Of course, that same poll would probably reveal they prefer Brazilian bananas to Honduran ones.
