Uh ... what? You wish the rule stated that the pivot foot must remain in contact with the ground, and then you quote where it says EXACTLY THAT, almost word for word.

Come on Mike, the rest of the sentence is "without creating a second push-off point before the stride foot lands", not "until the pitch is released" as Tony suggested.

The other part of the rule says "may not bear weight again until the pitch is released", for example.
