I'm looking for definitive status (live/dead) in writing (rulebook or casebook).
6-1-2 states specifcally ball becomes live when at the disposal of the thrower.
8-1-2 lists placing ball at disposal and placing ball on the floor as 2 separate acts.
I would agree with you if
8-1-2 said
placed at the disposal of the thrower (including placing the ball on the floor).
