Fight out what? You posted the case play.

9.2.2 SITUATION D: A1 dribbles the ball on floor on the out-of-bounds area
before making a throw-in. RULING: Legal.

There is no player control but the player has control of the ball.

A dribble is ball movement caused by a player in control who bats or pushes the ball to the floor once or several times.

Player control is rule book defined term.

A thrower does not have player control but he is a player in control of the ball.

There's a difference.

Now, could the NFHS be more clear? Yes, but not describing different situations with similiar terms. But, oh well.
