I agree with you. Completely. In fact, I've pretty much quit calling boys' games, because I don't like letting this go. But most folks around here do. The "landing simultaneously" thing is generally the justification I hear.
Interesting Juulie...I do call this, especially when it's a clear step. Not once have I had a partner suggest I pass on it. If they drag the pivot foot slightly I'll let it slide (unless it's due to defensive pressure), but if they pick up the pivot foot & put it back down without either passing or shooting I call the travel (dribbling is not a legal option once the pivot foot is picked up).
