This is really interesting. If you hear "pick" and see a throw go up
headed towards out of bounds, you should go attempt a legal greatest
to keep possession for your team. (10th edition too, I think)
Conversely, if you hear "foul" on the throw and see that same throw
towards the sideline, you should leave it alone, b/c a legal greatest
means "play on" and your team only keeps it if a teammate catches the
greatest (as opposed to getting it back b/c of the foul on the
throw). Pay attention!

It's not like this comes up very often, but that inconsistency is
likely not intended by the SRC (? maybe it couldn't be avoided)

I wouldn't call these scenarios inconsistent, just strange. We didn't
want the outcomes to be what they are, but we couldn't find a way to
fix them, and left them as-is. I forget why they were tough to fix. It
seems simple. (And I think that's what we thought when we first
discussed them too, with no result.)

I believe the issue was that we were thinking about making special
cases for greatests, but it's really hard to give a precise definition
that people can agree on. It makes things a lot messier in general to
fix a relatively uncommon special case. It's a cool play, but we don't
need to defend the offense. They did throw it out of bounds.
