In (a), the successful try by B4 is not scored and play is resumed using the alternating-possession procedure. In (b), play is resumed with a throw-in to Team A anywhere along the end line.

Why? Seems to me you could be giving Team A a free shot. If you are going to do this why not just kill it as soon as B1 gets the rebound?
I would like to see their rationale as to why they want it sounded after the try is released. What's another second for a player to get a rebound or see if the try is successful?

Exact, huh? That's all I need to know.
