As he begins this move, the ball comes to rest in his right hand, and he "carries" the ball across his body to the left before dropping the ball and continuing to dribble. The dribble ends when the dribbler allows the ball to come to rest in one or both hands. When he dribbles again, it is considered an illegal dribble.

Palming occurs when a dribbler can maintain their pivot foot, allows the ball to come to rest, and then completes a second dribble. This is an illegal dribble, commonly referred to as a double dribble. Carrying occurs when the ball comes to rest while the dribbler moves the pivot foot in excess of prescribed limits. This violation is covered within the traveling rule.

It appears that the guardians of the IAABO universe have confused themselves.
If one is going to differentiate between palming and carrying, then be consistent, otherwise just "lump" them together in one signal that most understand to be two different violations (illegal dribble, traveling).
