I see it differently. NFHS 4.42.2.b.2 is the origin of the jump stop ... the stated assumption is that the ball is caught with "one foot on the floor" ... if this article was not in the rule book, the one immediately preceding it would dictate that the foot on the floor is the pivot foot ... the article I cite, imho, is essentially an exception to the prohibition against the pivot foot returning to the floor.
You do correctly point out that the jump stop deals with the establishment of a pivot foot but that (restrictions upon the pivot foot)is the core of the travel rule ... not two steps, or one-and-a-half steps.
