Now re-add B1 touching the ball. It would be highly inconsistent, not to mention unfair, that a touch by B (especially an unsuccessful attempt to secure control) would affect the restrictions placed upon A to complete the throw-in. This logic doesn't need to consider the poor wording of the Fed.

Except that is exactly what they've done if A were to catch the ball coming from a throwin while airborne having jumped from the frontcourt after it is tipped by B.
