Billy, I think the case plays give us some insight into the committee's intent with this rule. Taking a few steps out of bounds to avoid a screen or defender is leaving the floor.

A defender gives up LGP by having a foot touching the line, but the rules (or case plays) say nothing about a 9-3-3 violation being committed; otherwise we could avoid the foul by calling a defensive violation for leaving the floor.
