I understand what you're saying. And I agree with you.

My only point is that the folks who publish the rules also publish a diagram of a legal fan shaped backboard. That diagram shows two flat sides. Given that, from a rules perspective, it should be easy to define OOB as being "over the top, between the two flat sides." Which, in my mind, negates the geometry argument.

Having said all of that, I'm still really curious about what the real reason for the seeming inconsistency is
