What's the difference if the slot took a step forward and
motioned in towards the QB?

Most coaches teach the backs (& flankers) to start to slide
a direction parallel to the LOS if they mess up the snap
count, and this is perfectly legal (assuming everyone was
set, no one else was in motion, and the step forward was not
too abrupt)

There is only one question to ask: Did the motion towards
the line simulate the start of a play? Because an official
or a B player felt the A player forgot the snap count, is
not, in itself, a reason to shut the play down.
