My guess would be that whoever said this was the rule was confusing the part about when the ball was officially out of bounds. It isn't out of bounds until it touches something that is out of bounds. Just crossing over the boundary line is not enough. I would expect that is where the confusion was when the person who originally said this was expounding.
My question would be, what difference does it make now? It's certainly NOT the rule now so WTH?
