It is true that, and I have argued for this before, another article under 9-5 stating that it is also a violation to perform a dribble in an illegal manner would be wonderful, but since we don't have that we simply follow the play ruling from the case book under 4.15.

I was about to jump in again, but I'm glad I finished the thread first. This sums up simply the crux of the issue.
