Please cite me some rules language, please, that states that the violation occurs on the step and not when the dribbler touches the ball again.

"The dribbler has committed a violation
if he/she steps on or outside a boundary...."
It could have said: The dribbler has committed a violation when he touches the ball after stepping on or outside a boundary.
How do we know it was a dribble and not a pass? We were watching the game. How do you ever award two shots for a foul in the act of shooting?
That could have been a pass, too.
