However, in the case book 9.9.1 Situation D, states that this is indeed a backcourt violation. Is it strictly because the player leapt from the front court into the backcourt versus already being in the backcourt?

yes -- once the player caught the ball, the ball was in the FC, with team control. So, when the player landed in the BC, it's a violation. The "throw-in exception" applies only to the player to first touch the ball -- once the ball was tipped, that exception no longer applies.
