Don't think the new rule changed 4-4-1:
A ball which is in contact with a player or with the court is in the backcourt if either the ball or the player (either player if the ball is touching more than one) is touching the backcourt. More directly, and though you address it, the status of the ball doesn't change to frontcourt for purposes of the rule according to 4-4-6: During a dribble from backcourt to frontcourt, the ball is in the frontcourt when the ball and both feet of the dribbler touch the court entirely in the frontcourt. Since the ball is never established in the frontcourt according to the above I don't think it contradicts the new wording. |

No contradiction...you never caused the ball to go into the frontcourt by virtue of you being a dribbler which means the ball is in the frontcourt only when both feet and the ball are in the frontcourt.
