If you take the rule as it is written the following would be true: Team A scores a basket, B1 in-bounds the ball to B2 who is standing underneath Team A’s basket and holds the ball. A1 commits a foul on B2 or causes the ball to go out of bounds. The ensuing throw-in is on the base line and team B stills has the right to run it. That is how the rule is written
Here's my 2 pennys...the above foul does not create a situation where you would have Team B able to "run" the baseline.

The only time Team B could run the baseline after a foul...is if the foul happened DURING THE THROW IN...not after, as your exapmle shows.

You seem to write quite eloquently, but your interpretation of the rule leaves a little to be desired...IMHO.
