I'm good with all those interpretations. Thought the way the officials dealth with it in game was fine just curious what others would do.
As a follow up is there a point where you would administer a T for a team for any of the following actions:
- Team fouling to garner possessions once the outcome is no longer in doubt (they are down 30-40 pts with a minute left or maybe they are up big and just want the ball back to go for a school record)
- Team down by a large margin and being pressed heavily simply starts inbounding the ball the other team.
- Player intentionally throwing ball out of bounds or committing a violation to get a whistle (wants a sub, avoiding live ball turnover, etc).
- PLayer throwing the ball out of bounds simply to run time off the clock before it contacts out of bounds or to change the position a team must inbounds from.

I'm guessing the conversation with the coach is the same one I would have had, just one shot later than I would have done it.
A simple rule change might fix this "loophole." Extend the delayed violation to be ignored if the offense gets the rebound.
None of your follow up plays could lead to an interminable game.
Some consider the 2nd situation to be a travesty. I'd ask the coaches if they want to shorten the quarter.
