I must admit, it took me longer than I thought to straighten out in my head the distinctions you were making in your posts. But I think I see what you are saying.
original sitch: player moves ball along floor, never picks up, no violation because no player control
mj's sitch: player places ball on floor, rolls it along, etc - doesn't matter what comes next, because after he takes two steps he travelled, since his initial holding of the ball established player control which was never subsequently relinquished.
Is this the difference or am I missing something?

you are not missing a thing! You have it right!
Basically, he's passing the ball to himself, since rolling the ball is considered passing it.
