I don't know why it is the way out is. Probably because on a technical foul, the POI may well be the other team getting a throw in.
Also, poi is not the right term here. In the case of intentional personal fouls, it's put in play at the spot of the foul. That's completely different than POI.

the award of free throws and whether they are made or not has nothing to do with it.....thats why I said that twice....and the score of the game doesn't matter either or time on the clock.....(but if it makes you feel better say they were down by 3 at the time instead of 1 and they made them both)
point is....they still get moved back to half court instead of being under the basket.....
even if it is the other team getting the throw in, it should still be at the same spot......it should go both ways....
the terminology is not the issue here.....yes on intentional fouls it is the "spot of the foul".....howver the administration of everything else is just like a Technical (you clear the lanes and shoot the free throws).....but with an intentional you go back to the "spot of the foul".....
why on a technical do we have to go back to half court?.....when as indicated above, it can actually put a team at a disadvantage....
just go back and make it wherever the throw in spot was no matter who the T is on.....IMO changing the throw in spot after a T is unneccessary.....
