as far as the fumbling out of bounds in the end zone issue.....giving the ball back to the other team is just plan asinine as well. Seriously, who came up with these 'ingenious' rules?  at what point did the defense gain any point of control over the ball that went out of bounds?  how come its not like that if someone fumbles out of bounds at the 46 yard line?  why doesn't the ball get turned over then?  

Not trying to hijack things here, but the rule has been in place for decades and never been a problem until recently, and only then because some jack off that runs PFT didn't think it was fair that his team was penalized with a turnover.

What happens if you lose possession out of the back of your own end zone?  2 points for the opponent and the opponent gets possession via a kickoff.  Would it be fair to give the same reward to the opposition if you lose possession out of their end zone?  Probably not. 

So what is the compromise?  The rule that has always been in place, i.e. losing a ball out of either endzone is a turnover.  As the possession is occuring in the opponents end zone, it is a touch back.
