You must remember that the use of AP for an inadvertent whistle was meant to apply to LIVE ball situations where there is no team control. The use of the term "ball becomes dead" in the rulebook means that the inadvertent whistle caused the ball to become dead.
ie. A1 shoots and misses, rebound tips off B1's hand and goes to the corner, three players scramble for it and inadvertent whistle occurs. No team control, inadvertent stoppage in play, therefore AP.
While the ball is technically dead after the ball goes through the hoop, it is live when the scored-upon team gets the ball on the baseline for the throw-in, and that's why it's included as an exception.

This is the proper interp. IMO ~ When the spirit/intent and advantage/disadvantage principles are implemented, this is the only thing that makes since to me.
