Question Why is this different than a foul during a try?

I understand that excessively swinging the elbow during a try is a violation and if committed by a team mate the goal does not count. But why is this different than when a foul occurs during the same play? We count the basket when a foul is committed. What's the logic behind this?

A foul in my opinion is more severe. Suppose A2 committed a flagrant foul while the ball was in flight. We count the basket. But when A2 excessively swings his arms and does not make contact, but we call a violation, we wipe away the points?!?!?!

I just don't understand the reasoning behind this.
