I've not seen comments on this interpretation, so what can anyone tell me about enemies picking up arrows shot out of the hut and shooting them back in (albeit at obscured creatures inside)? Do those arrows get a pass since they were inside the hut when cast?

\$\begingroup\$ We can't answer why the designer did something (that's designer intent), but we can answer whether your question at the end about using ammunition that left. I've adjusted your question, but you can always roll back or edit it! \$\endgroup\$– NotArchNov 13, 2019 at 20:14

\$\begingroup\$ Get a pass? I must be missing context as to why they wouldn't be able to use the ammunition. Is it magic ammunition or something? If it is a spell, it should be stated clearly. \$\endgroup\$– Eternallord66Nov 13, 2019 at 20:35

\$\begingroup\$ I checked the edits to see that it was a spell and made an edit to show it. \$\endgroup\$– Eternallord66Nov 13, 2019 at 20:39

\$\begingroup\$ It might be useful to know that RAI you can't shoot arrows through a tiny hunt spell whether they are on creatures inside it or not. sageadvice.eu/2015/06/22/moving-through-leomunds-tiny-hut \$\endgroup\$– Gerson LopezFeb 15, 2021 at 5:14

The relevant part of the Leomund's Tiny Hut (PHB, 255) spell description states:
Creatures and objects within the dome when you cast this spell can move through it freely. All other creatures and objects are barred from passing through it.
Based on that description, in order to pass out of the dome, the arrows would have had to be inside the dome initially. If they were inside the dome initially, it should be possible to shoot them back inside the dome as well.

\$\begingroup\$ @minnmass To be more direct, the rules say that it takes a minute to search a battlefield for ammo, and you recover half of the ammo used. \$\endgroup\$– YakkNov 14, 2019 at 19:06
