Fighting ???

I discovered this in some IAABO educational materials:

"If A1 and B1 fight during a live or dead ball, they are charged with flagrant technical fouls and disqualified from the game."

Is this true? If A1 and B1 start a fight during a live ball, wouldn't the fouls be flagrant personal fouls, not flagrant technical fouls?

And the difference is important. In this case it's a double foul, with no free throws, but if only A1 throws a punch, and B1 just backs off, the flagrant personal foul would mean that B1 shoots the free throws, whereas, if it was a flagrant technical foul, any Team B player could shoot the free throws.
