Am I right about this difference in usage? Or am I still totally missing what everybody else is seeing?

Right! 4-43-2a describes one type of jump stop and 4-43-2b describes the other type of jump stop.

BTW, I thought there was only one type of jump stop until someone on this baord straighten me out a year or so ago.

The 0 for 2 comment was based on this play and the mascot that you were going to eject for beating up the scorpion at halftime. Just yanking your chain!
