Although these slides came from IAABO, they appear to match the new rule language and rationale that was released by the NFHS several weeks ago.

For players who "voluntarily" go out of bounds and then come back inbounds, and for a player who is already legally out of bounds (inbounding a throwin), we seem to have to use “first to touch" language and advantage disadvantage as we’ve already seen over the past two years with the “out of bounds back to inbounds” rule change and the subsequent clarification.
