So if a D1 tips a pass and it then clips A1's hand on the way to the BC and then A1 recovers, that is BC?

Team control may continue to exist even when player control is lost: the rule is written this way to cover the situation where a foul occurs during a pass between players on the offense. So loss of player control doesn't affect the backcourt rule.
That rule, as others have mentioned, has an exception that applies to throw-ins. The same logic thus does not apply.
