You didn't say anything qualifying about anybody else, you said it straight up (see below, assuming "they" means the NFHS).

I do not think that anybody is fully getting up here, rather, in my opinion, it's an "attempt to get up", as the rule states.
Once one deems her actions as an attempt to get up, it's illegal, don't have to wait for the "get up" to be completed.
Others may deem her actions not an attempt to get up.
That's why it's a subjective judgement call, one of dozens of subjective judgement calls that we are expected to make in a typical basketball game.
