B3 holds A3 trying to keep them from getting the ball. A3 shoots a 1&1 and misses. A2 and B2 now have a jump ball. Because of the AP arrow change B now gets the ball instead of A.

I'm not sure what to make of plays like this, but it would be a game changing rule(rarely).
Oh, my change would definitely affect a few different scenarios.

AP throw in, A reaches the ball across the OOB plane and B1 grabs it and ties it up. Currently, A gets a new AP throw in. Under my change, B would get an AP throw in.

Any foul by either team would not result in the arrow staying put; that would be a change.
