If you read your own reference in 4-12-2a, that says:
Ending a throw-in does not automatically establish TC or even player control.

Yes you do. Certainly not on a throw in, but it is possible to touch the ball in the FC without controlling it to have FC status.
Case book 9.9.1 C: A1 is dribbling in his/her backcourt and throws a pass to the frontcourt. While standing in A's frontcourt A2 touches the ball and deflects it back to A's backcourt where it touches the floor. A2 recovers in the backcourt.
RULING: Violation. The ball was in control of A1 and Team A, and a player from A was the last to touch the ball in frontcourt and a player of A was the first to touch it after it returned to the back court.
