"Once a fielder leaves the field of play, it doesn't matter if he kept his feet or not."
The current OBR book still emphasizes falls into, not just enters DBT. In some MLB parks, it is entirely possible, if unlikely, that a fielder could make a running catch and then leap a fence (though not one of today's outfield fences) and remain standing. Maybe that's why "spectator seating area" was added. Local, made-up rules are fine, but they are not relevant.
