Not exclusively. See the case book play I cited earlier.

Still incorrect.

"NFHS 4.44.2A: Dribbler A1 catches the ball with the right foot touching the floor and then jumps off that foot an alights on both feet simultaneously... RULING: ... it is a violation if A1 pivots on either foot."

In this case book play which you cited, after completing this jumpstop A1 may still jump in order to pass or shoot. A1 can certainly lift either foot, he just can't put it back down.

Not arguing that, but that's not the sole definition of travelling.

I provided the NFHS definition for a standing player holding the ball with the exception of one who falls to the floor (NFHS definition is touching with other than a hand or foot). Otherwise NFHS traveling only covers a player who secures control while already on the floor, but that wasn't relevant to your situation or questions about a pivot.

The sit. you cited refers specifically to when a player may or may not pivot relative to a jump stop when receiving a pass.

See the definition of pivot from 4.33 that Camron cited:

A pivot takes place when a player who is holding the ball steps once, or more than once, in any direction with the same foot while the other foot, called the pivot foot, is kept at its point of contact with the floor.

To "step" you must pick up a foot and put it back down.
