The way that rule was enforced, is that the player did not complete the process of making the catch.

I think it was enforced correctly per the current rule.

The problem James has is that as he's going to the ground, he shuffles his hands after touching the ground and the ball moves. This demonstrates not having complete control of the ball, and hence an incomplete pass. If James stays put and the ball doesn't hit the ground and move...than yes it's a complete pass.

The whole broke the plane or didn't break the plane doesn't matter.
