Nope. I'm saying if you're not moving, you've already stopped.

When is movement complete? I tend to lean towards the thinking that standing on one foot is not a stable ending position.....the movement is not complete. It may be very, very slow, but not yet complete.

I'm just saying it maybe legal by rule but calling it a "jump stop" is probably not the most accurate way to describe it.
