One of our other members once posted that a member of the NFHS softball rule committee said:
"For purpose of this rule only, being out of the box is defined as having both feet on the ground outside of the box."
This was never contradicted or reversed by that (now former) member of the Committee or by anyone in authority at NFHS, so it's my basis.
