Actually, the more proper philosophy is that if it is away from the hold it still is a hold, but to make the game flow more smoothly you chose not to enforce it. Nothing makes it legal if it's away from the play, and we're giving the team a break by not calling it. If you need to call it because it's persistant, then feel free to do so. You don't owe the team a free pass on an illegal technique.
