Correct. And some esteemed interpreter has opined (iirc) that the play in this thread is NOT a violation. Most of us disagree with the interpreter, and nothing has been published on it.

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

I think it was intended -- once the offense gets the ball in the FC, they need to keep the ball in the FC. It's not much different than an OOB call (it' slightly different bevcause the BC is part of the playing court, so we need to give the defense an opportunity to get to the ball -- which we don't do on an OOB call).
