You haven't seen it.

If a player shoots the ball on the way down, then it's not a jump stop.

He's an airborne shooter, he eventually has to land. As an airborne shooter, he had to elevate, or jump, and he stopped descending when he hit the floor. All kinds of physical laws are involved here. Newton would have loved to study this play. Let me check Rule 4 to find a proper term, or definition. No jump stop in Rule 4. Maybe I could call it a landing? Better? Wait? No landing in Rule 4.

Now, if you are referring to the various legal methods of moving one's feet while holding the ball, as described in 4-44 (not identified as jump stop by the NFHS), you're right.
