No, I'm not getting it confused. I would simply handle it the same way. A player is not allowed to play with an untucked jersey. A player is not allowed to play while wearing jewelry. 3.4.15 allows you to remove the players from the lane, have A1 shoot the FTs, and then five the ball to B.
Considering everything involved, this is the best answer, I believe. A1 is allowed to shoot her FTs but is somewhat penalized by not having an opportunity to rebound if the last shot is missed. But that's certainly better than allowing A to gain advantage by sending in their best FT shooter. I see no difference in the uniform issue verses the jewelry issue in this situation.
Here's 3.4.15 for those who haven't previously read it.
B1 fouls A1. Just before A1 goes to the line for a one-and-one, the official observes: (a) A1 either pulls the shirt out of his/her pants; or (b) that A1's pants are partially below the hips.
Ruling: In both (a) and (b), A1 will be directed to put the shirt in the pants or pull up the pants and must leave the game immediately following his/her last free throw(s). The lane is cleared and it will be B's ball for a throw-in, whether or not the last free throw is successful.
