2) NCAA Rule 4
Section 44. Jump Stop
A jump stop may also be executed when the dribbler has one foot on the playing court, initiates a jump off that foot, ends the dribble with both feet off the playing court and lands simultaneously on both feet (either foot can be established as the pivot foot)

And you're still missing the point!!!!!!
In #1 (NFHS rule 4-44-2(b)2 that you cited above), The player caught the ball(ended their dribble) with
one foot ON the floor.
In #2 above( NCAA rule 4-44(jump stop), the player caught the ball and ended their dribble
with both feet OFF the court.
These are two completely different and disparate acts, and both rulesets treat them as such. And both rulesets are exactly the same when it comes to determination of the pivot foot for #1 and #2. You're trying to compare 2 acts that aren't comparable. And that's why you're confusing the hell outa everybody.
