Well, a shot is fundamentally different to the game from a pass. You don't get two points for passing. You get two shots if you're fouled while shooting (if the try is no good).
The whole difference is whether it was a try for a goal. If so, then you were attempting to score, and things fundamentally change. You are giving the ball up (from your team and your person, hence lack of player and team control...well, except for airborne shooter provisions) in an attempt to score. In a pass, you have no intention of that happening. You solely mean to give it to another member of your team. Hence, these two types of "deliberately giving up the ball" are fundamentally different.
Just the way I see it.
