Thanks for this explanation; I feel a little obnoxious to keep "arguing" here, but I still have more questions. I'm not disagreeing, but trying to understand.
When you say,"It's correctable until the ball is touched in-bounds" does that apply to other types of mistakes as well, say putting the ball into play at the wrong spot, or suddenly realizing that this player has five fouls or something else? I hope the answer is yes! I have "fixed" (thanks Camron for this helpful word suggestion!) errors after handing the ball but-before-it-was-inbounds several times in my short career, but I always felt guilty thinking I shouldn't.
Is the rule, then, that no ref mistakes are fixable after the next touch in-bounds, except for the Correctable Errors as in 2-10?
