Because that creates a different hole....the interval between the first touch (no longer during the throwin) and when a player gains control (start of team control) would still result in FTs if in the bonus. There is no reason to not just redefine team control to begin starting when the ball is at the disposal of a thrower and extend the exceptions for backcourt violations to allow a throwin to go to any area of the court until there is player control.
