If the defensive player decides to 'go over the top' instead of behind the hand-off, it makes the actual hand-off more risky and potentially causing the offensive player with the ball to disengage from attempting to hand the ball off.
I'm not saying this was called correctly or incorrectly, but I'm not seeing too many opinions siding one way, which leads me to believe this is not as cut and dry as you seem to make it.

If A1, who has someone guarding him, is making a beeline towards a teammate who has someone guarding him then A1 is settig a screen or receiving a screen. The subsequent contact between A1/B2 or A2/B1 falls under screening rules and principles.
NCAA refs, as has been mentioned a couple times, are supposed to be on the lookout for A1 setting up these illegal screens. A1 is not accidentally ending up in B2's path.
