Your initial argument makes no sense at all. POI would potentially give the ball to the offending team, which is silly. And in at least half, if not the majority of cases, you will end up putting the offended team at a disadvantage rather than an advantageous position. Only in a small number of cases would your awesome rule change help the offended team. You have tunnel vision - all you're seeing is the affect from this one play that might (might not) help this team, who would have probably won the game if they made the free throws. The free throws matter. Everything that happened earlier in the game matters, too. If they hadn't missed shots in the first half they may have won, too. You can't blame the rule for this loss. Lighten up, Francis.
