I think it's fair to say that our lonnnnnnggggg discussions of what should be called when the inbounder fails to step OOB before passing up the floor was part of the impetus that led to the clarification this year stating that this kind of play is definitely a throw-in violation, and not a delay warning, or a do-over.
Wow, that's a long sentence. But the point is, our discussions here sometimes have an indirect, but real, effect on the rulebook.
