Yet another case of a back court violation that was not intended (in my opinion) when the division line was put in.

I agree this may not have been originally intended, but I'm not sure it goes against their intent. In either case, the current rules makers clearly intend for this to be a violation.
I do think Mark's OP is a case where the intent of the original rule writers is met. Once you're in the FC, you are not allowed to use the BC voluntarily. That's what Padgett's players did.
