2020 Deathzone BB7s touchback

seems to be a minor bit of confusion
in Deathzone it states that you setup and kick as per the rules
the confusion is the 7s pitch

the rules sate a touchback is off the pitch or in the kicking teams half of the pitch
in 7s the pitch is roughly divided into 3 sections with each team having their own side and a "no mans land" in the middle

are we to interpret the rule to be the kickers section plus 3 deep into the no mans land
or
in the kickers section (and it is okay to land in the no mans land)

same as above with Placing the Kick
is it in the receivers half or behind the receivers LOS

A popular question.
Until an faq covers it, it will be up the individual coaches or TOs at tourneys.
I'm seeing most say a touch back is only when the ball lands in the behind the opponent's line of scrimmage.
