Agree. The ONLY time you disregard such body bumps is MAYBE when they are dumping off a pass to a teammate for a guaranteed score.

Example, bump at half court of a turnover/fastbreak when the pass is being released to a teammate who is ahead of everyone and streaking undefended to the basket and the pass comes out clean. Sometimes you let those go for the obvious benefit. Otherwise, it isn't about possession consequence but about RSBQ.
