Umm it’s not about “losing control”
He could have laid on his back with no one touching him batting the ball in the air playing hot potato with himself. If he ends up with the ball it’s a catch even after “losing control” because he wasn’t down.
Because he regained control ultimately, the issue ends up being (setting aside completely the actual rules of crossing the plane and being a touchdown) whether we have a clear shot of the ball on the turf.

none of this is true. He loses control on ground, the whole catch is null and void. i don't care for rule neither, but that's the rule.
