I'd appreciate further clarification on this, especially the foundational phraseology in the rules or casebook or vanished interps which would expect a travelling violation on A1.
When it happens, I wanna get it right.

The relevant rules citation is found in 4-23-1--
"Every player is entitled to a spot on the playing court provided that such player gets there first without illegally contacting an opponent."
Forget LGP; it isn't relevant in this situation. The cite above is.
Hope that helps....
