If memory serves (and I'm sure some on here can correct me if my memory is bad), at one time Ts were one shot and resume from where it was. Over time, two things were done to enhance the punishment: (1) move to 2 shots, & (2) award the ball to the other team -- and that was done with where the ball would be taken out.

So I don't think the change was done to take away advantageous position, but to ensure the ball was taken from the miscreants team. I think you're looking for a "reason" for something that wasn't part of the decision -- just a very rarely encountered side effect. And because it is very rare, no one has ever cared enough to push forward for a change that would permit the team to keep what they deem to be a more advantageous positition for a throw in. (Think about it -- this really only has any negative bite in the last few seconds -- and how often is the team with a thin lead stupid enough to pick up the T at the time? That makes it tough to break inertia and get a rule change.)

So Cal Lurker:

I am just now reading this thread and I am going down it post by post so I do not know if your question has been addressed yet.

In the "Ancient Days" in both boys'/girls' H.S. and men's/women's college, if the TF was neither Intentional nor Flagrant, the penalty for a TF was one FT and a TI at the Division Line with the Team 's Captain would decide from which side of the court to take the TI.

Later the NFHS (first) followed by the NCAA, one year later, made the penalty for TFs two FTs and the ball would be inbounded at the Division Line opposite the Scorer's Table.

Thank you oh great seer, soothsayer, and sage. May a bloated yak change the temperature of your Jacuzzi.
