talking off the top of my head...does it matter? Im an airborne shooter, even if I shoot poorly, until I land. Violation just means if it goes in it doesn't count but id still get my two shots... yes?

6-7: The ball becomes dead, or remains dead, when:
ART. 5 An official’s whistle is blown (see exceptions a and b below).
ART. 7 A foul, other than player-control or team-control, occurs (see
exceptions a, b and c below).
ART. 9 A violation, as in 9-2 through 13, occurs (see exception d
below).
EXCEPTION: The ball does not become dead until the try or tap ends, or
until the airborne shooter returns to the floor, when:
a. Article 5, 6, or 7 occurs while a try or tap for a field goal is in
flight.
