Similarity ...
Do my questions (above post) have any similarity to past Forum discussions involving the following:
When an airborne player tries for goal, sees that the try will be blocked, purposely drops the ball, and touches the ball after it hits the floor, that player has traveled by starting a dribble with the pivot foot off the floor. (from Misunderstood Rules)
Some (including me) said to wait to see if the airborne player touches the ball after it hits the floor, maybe it's the start of a legal pass, before sounding the whistle for a violation.
Others, if I remember correctly, said to immediately sound the whistle for the violation as soon as the ball hits the floor, not waiting for the airborne player to touch the ball after it hits the floor. Some may have even advocated for the violation and whistle without waiting for the ball to even hit the floor.
Certainly not the same, but is this topic (above) similar to deciding whether, or not, the start of a dribble is the same as a dribble?
Are they both about whether, or not, the start (or part of) of a illegal act, is the same as the illegal act itself?
