To be fair, this is how 8 second violations are called in the NBA so they may try to apply that usage in high school. Not correct for the reasons you stated.

When those work in the NBA they can use that standard. We are not talking about the NBA and the rules do not have the same standards. The throw-in ends when it is legally touched. That might not include possession or team control. This is why it should not be used at other levels like the NBA.
