I'm just saying what I'd likely call in real time in a game. Is it possible that an airborne held ball would be so obvious that I'd call it? Sure, but it's just not likely. But two players with their hands on the ball isn't sufficient for a held ball call, and we normally give the players a moment to sort it out by trying to get control from their opponents.

That's pretty hard to do in the short time they're airborne, and even harder without the leverage of their feet on the floor.
