Why wouldn't you elbow the neck when you are side control? The carotid, jugular vein, SCM muscle and nerves are all available to get damaged.

I'm always yelling for a guy to smash another dude's windpipe. Pretty sure that's a Krav Maga technique.

Because it's illegal. No strikes to the throat or spine.

I'm no scholor of the rules and honestly I'm not sure the answer but I feel like the range concidered the spine, and the range concidered the throat would leave a space along the side of the neck smaller than a fist so it would be impossible for it not to be illegal...but that's just my take on it.

In all seriousness:
"One work by Greek writer and geographer Pausanias, for instance, describes the victory (but then disqualification) in the 496 or 492 BCE Olympic Games of the boxer Cleomedes, who killed his opponent, Iccus, by driving his hand into his stomach and disemboweling him.
... But perhaps the final proof of Cleomedes' gory feat is the fact that the very same thing happened again a century later (this time at the Nemean Games) when a boxer called Damoxenus killed his opponent, Creugas, in a penalty punchoff after a grueling, day-long struggle, with another disemboweling spearhand to the gut."
