Got that.
What should rise to the level of pet peevish is when the all-too-casual official just allows the player to stand just anywhere over there (quite wide of the dimension over which the player must have "a foot on or over"), and in doing so takes the advantage of the relative location of the division line away from a pressing defense and an unsuspecting player who catches the throw-in and get him/herself trapped up against it.
It just isn't that hard to point to the "spot" and make the player at least start there.
