I'm not seeing that, I see lateral movement to maintain initial LGP.

Same here.

The ball handler does not go airborne. He remains in contact with court up to and through the time of contact with the opponent. Therefore, the defender is legally allowed to move in any direction except forward and be moving at the time of the contact. This is a PC foul.
Those stating block either must judge there was forward movement by the defender or are confusing the situation with guarding an airborne player.

That's was my reasoning.
