"Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes"...Unannounced Type

In Rule 4 . . .

4-15-3:
Was: "The dribble may be started by pushing, throwing or batting the ball to the floor before the pivot foot is lifted."
Now: "The dribble begins by pushing, throwing or batting the ball to the floor before the pivot foot is lifted.
Assessment: I like any time they get rid of the word "may", I'm for it. Sometimes leaves options open that aren't really permitted. Wish they'd clean up 8-1-4 in similar fashion.

4-19-3d:
Oh wait, that one was "announced."

4-20-2:
Was: "The free throw starts when..."
Now: "The free throw begins when..."
Assessment: A distinction without a difference.
