Yes, this much closer to what stand your ground is all about. There is also a little bit of the castle law working here too.

Actually it is not. It is just a simple case of self-defense. Stand Your Ground Is just legal justification for shoot first and ask questions later if you are losing an argument.

Simpleton understanding of the law; not even close to being correct.

Use of force in defense of person.—A person is justified in using force, except deadly force, against another when and to the extent that the person reasonably believes that such conduct is necessary to defend himself or herself or another against the other’s imminent use of unlawful force. However, a person is justified in the use of deadly force and does not have a duty to retreat if1) He or she reasonably believes that such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the imminent commission of a forcible felony; or
(2) Under those circumstances permitted pursuant to s. 776.013.
