This insinuates to me that the ball touching another part of the body does not end the dribble, with the exception of a kicking violation, which of course causes the ball to become dead.

If you continue to ignore the "unless..." part of 9-5-3 about "been touched by, another player"..., then
on your floor, when A1 makes a pass directly to an opponent, where the opponent
did not specifically bat the ball, then
you would still have A1 dribbling.
Some things a person must do alone.
