Hmmm, I'm not buying it. It would be a simple matter to define over the "top" as being above the backboard between the two flat sides. That definition would be consistent between the two types.
This brings to mind another, related question: what if part of the ball passes over a rectangular backboard. In other words, if the ball was thrown "over" the backboard, but only part of it passed over the top between the sides. How much is enough to call it out of bounds?
entirely over = OOB
3/4 over?
1/2 over?
1/4 over?
< 1/4 over?
