The phraseology explaining this situation may not be worded ideally, but there isn't anything here that would merit removal of 4.23.3B from the Casebook. It's not talking about putting a foot on the line or off the playing court in that sense. It's talking about jumping and in that way "leaving the playing court."
Pick up your diploma from the principal's office. Your schooling has ended. Long ago.
