When we determine that contact is onot a foul it is done because there was no advantage gained or it did not disrupt the action on the floor.
If the contact cuases the player to go down or lose control of the ball then there is advantage gained because another violation or turnover has occured that could result in the lose of the ball for that team.
Example - the dreaded player contact/or tangling of feet that results in the dribbler staggering down the floor for a couple of seconds but then goes down as a result of that contact and you end up making the call two or three seconds after the contact. Do you let that player go down and just give them back the ball?
What was different in this situation as described. If the contact cuased the ball to go out of bounds and as a result of that contact advantage is gained (they get the ball) you have to call the foul, I see no other choice.

Ah, that's easy !
The difference is that it is easier to hide an out-of-bounds call cuz the line is so close.
