BC and I are basically saying the same thing. I should have written that TC begins once the ball is placed at the disposal of the thrower instead of saying there is TC during a throw-in. That would have made it clear that while an inbounds touch or deflection ends the throw-in, it doesn't end TC.

The rest of what I wrote is from the NFHS POE #4 on page 70 of this season's rules book. The NFHS tells us that the guiding principle is that until PC is obtained inbounds certain violations aren't applicable and the TC status only matters for fouls.
