Hello,
Regarding rule 11.5 “A disc becomes out-of-bounds when it first contacts the out-of-bounds area or contacts an out-of-bounds offensive player. A disc in the possession of an offensive player has the
same in/out-of-bounds status as that player. If the disc is simultaneously in the
possession of more than one offensive player, one of them being out-of-bounds, the disc
is out-of-bounds” – what if the person catches the disc in the air and when they land they simultaneously land with one foot in-bounds and one foot out-of-bounds? Based on 11.5 I would think it’s out-of-bounds, but rule only mentions if two people catch the disc at the same time.Rule 8.6 states “After a turnover, the team that has gained possession of the disc must continue play without delay. The intended thrower must move at walking pace or faster to directly retrieve the disc and establish a pivot. And it goes on to state that delay of game violation may be called if there is unreasonable delay – does this apply after scoring? There are times where teams delay starting a pull to kill time on the game.
Rule 13.7.2 – according to this rule, the turnover location is where the intercepted player stops, but what if they intercept in their defending end zone, does 13.11 apply where they can choose the goal line option or just have to fake a pass from there?
13.5.1 states that in the case of an interception turnover, the player who intercepted must maintain possession, but new rule 13.6 states that if someone intentionally drops disc after turnover, they re-establish possession. Does that mean the same player must or any offensive player can? And if it’s that any offensive player can take the intentionally dropped interception, doesn’t that contradict 13.1.5?

That is out-of-bounds.
And it goes on to state that delay of game violation may be called if there is unreasonable delay – does this apply after scoring? There are times where teams delay starting a pull to kill time on the game.
Rule 7.1.1 deals with this: “Teams must prepare for the pull without unreasonable delay.”

13.11 does apply after an interception.
13.6 states that if someone intentionally drops disc after turnover, they re-establish possession. Does that mean the same player must or any offensive player can?
The same player must re-establish possession.
