You cited 10-3-10 to prove that fighting is a T, but have you read 10.4.4A?
A1 and B1 have a fight and are both charged with flagrant personal fouls!
Care to explain?
PS I'm on your side. I guess the casebook must be wrong.

My only guess is the officials didn't initally declare the "punches" to be a fight, but simply flagrant personal fouls which grew into a fight.
10-3-10 is certainly one of the most unambiguous rules in the book: Fighting is a T. It makes no distinction between live and dead ball.
Fighting starts with the attempt to strike the opponent. It may or may not include contact. The penalty is for trying to hit the opponent.
