Throw-in question

Someone can perhaps find definition of "status" but I think location of the ball is defined as where it is (roughly speaking). So ball touches BC therefore the ball's location is BC. Then it goes to A2 and then ball's location is FC. Sound right?

Does status = location?

Don't believe that possession is part of definition of location. No book handy though.
