4-4-5 4.15.4C(c)
That case reference is specifically for a try. In Mark's case he says he judges it to not be a try.

BBR, this situation has come up a time or two at our meetings and I have tried to explain why it is judged legal. I am not getting my point across LOL...can you again explain why it is legal, even if judged not to be a try?
And I'm willing to just say "it was a try" and leave it at that. Is this by rule, though, or just by instinct/accepted practice?
