Point A is the "balance point". If you were to jack up the car and use jackstands under Points A and B, the car might rest there, but any bit of extra weight on the rear (like a hand or a full tank of gas) and the car will flip backward off the jack stands at Point A.
To lift the car completely off the ground, you have to place jackstands under both sides at Point B and either Point C or Point D.
Point A is only to lift up one side of the car lifting both wheels on that side off the ground, while both wheels on the other side remain on the ground.
I suspect that the best way to lift the car at home is to drive the back up on ramps, remove the under tray and diffuser, then put the car on the ground. Then lift at point A, place jackstands at B and C, and repeat for the other side.
