As Bob noted, there's disagreement as to what constitutes a "jump stop." If you go strictly with #3 (as I do), you can't pivot once both feet hit the floor.
Here's a link to the NFHS Learning Center. As for questioning a official's ruling, it depends. Are you a player, a head coach, assistant coach, or spectator?

I don't think there's disagreement. There's just different rules regarding a pivot foot and whether it exists based on when the ball is gathered.
