He can be "on the floor" and continuous motion can have already started.
That's why the term is inaccurate.

Thank you Tony. I have already made this point and now that two of us have made it more people will listen to us. The phrase "on the floor" is meaningless. It is like having your partner tell you "its good" instead of telling you the ball went in or did not go in.
