7-6-6: Allows the official administering a throw-in to the wrong team to correct the mistake before the first dead ball after the ball becomes live unless there is a change of possession. Rationale: Allows for a correction of an official's mistake in a more reasonable time frame.

Agree. I was also thinking about this.

Held balls, fouls, or granted timeouts, all include dead balls.

Even an inadvertent whistle, or a whistle to pick up a loose coin on the court, or for a player to adjust their glasses.

The "change of possession" in the rule would include things like live ball steals, and no team control shot attempts.
