Formalizing English usage is, IMHO, nothing like the formal rulesmaking process. It's more like an informal Saturday pick up game at the park, where that one kid who never got picked tries to explain the rules, as best he can make them out, to the bystanders. This is how Billy Packer got started. In fact, it's astonishing how many sports commentators have English degrees.

True of the painted line; 4-9-2 refers to the "edge" of the line, which is a line proper.

The rule says "Plane" not "Line", so the width of the line is irrelevant. The "Inbounds" plane of the line and "out of bounds" plane of the line are the exact same plane, where both meet.

Wow my head is spinning!!! I never really even thought about all this. If a thow in is being taken place and the thrower steps on the line I never called a violation. But since he stepped across the Out of Bounds line but not over the In bounds line.......where is he?

It refers to the painted line, recommended to be 2 inches but sometimes larger. Sometimes it's nonexistent, in which case the plane on the out of bounds side of the boundary line is co-located with the plane on the inbounds side of the boundary line.
