"...bats or pushes to..."
It doesn't say sitting or placing the ball on the floor.
And to your other point about the foot, it doesn't say that the ball has to hit the floor to be a dribble, does it?

Setting the ball down on the floor isn't pushing it to the floor? What is it? Lowering it to the floor?
As for the foot play, the rule does say "to the floor." To me that means that it actually gets there. I believe that there is solid rules support for my understanding.

That's how it should look.
