Awarding points on a throw in

5-1-1 + a CP that only deals with touching the ball in the cylinder for BI = possible confusion.

5-1-1 has NOTHING to do with this play (or any other play that involves AWARDING points, as opposed to SCORING points).

Someone needs to look up the word POSSIBLE in the dictionary.

I am VERY AWARE of the difference between awarded and scored, the trouble is so much of the rule book is take a little of this rule and a little of that rule to apply the rules to a given situation. Someone could read no goal can be allowed during a throw-in for an untouched pass in 5-1-1 and use that to judge a possible BI during a throw-in, especially when the case play only mentions the touching the ball type of BI.
