That seems to go against the spirit of the rule which is to award a runner going up field forward progress.
Maybe that’s not actually the spirit of the rule.

Perhaps not
But it wouldn't be considered a catch under any other scenario at that point. If he would have dropped it mid air immediately after catching and before his feet landed it would be called incomplete and not a fumble. I'd argue that he hadn't completed the catch until he was short of the line to gain.
