And you'd be 100% wrong. Quit making stuff up. Doing what you're doing is the genesis of inconsistency. If everyone starts modifying the rules to be the way they might like them, we have a horrible mess.

Absolutely not. You could chop the shooters arms off with a hatchet and the ball that was already released would be completely unaffected....unless, perhaps, Yoda is in the building.
