Believe the foul line as an indicator to be inconsistent as it depends on where the batter is standing, or even running in the box.
You talk to 20 umpires and you are quite likely to get 20 different tips on what they look for as an indicator. I've always tried to not overthink it and simply rely on my judgment based on what my eyes tell my brain what just happened.
