The only time it matters is when there is 2.4 left on the clock, and the official doesn't notice that there was an error until the ball is caught at the mid-court life and the horn sounds at that point. THEN you've got a problem, and a 15 page thread...

did we really make it to 15 with that one?? but really the ball was caught down in the front court near the other endline, which in itself contributed 34.8% of the thread LOL
