That's why, I think, the move you describe is not often called.
When you described it in your first post, it's easy for us to visualize -- LF is the pivot, move the RF, step with the LF ==> violation.
When it's done in practice, as you describe later, while constantly moving, it's hard for an official to tell exactly when the player caught the ball, and where the feet were at the time -- were both feet on the floor, was the RF in the air, or had it already returned to the ground?
It's (generally) better to miss a call than to call something that isn't there -- so (some) officials will (sometimes / often) let this go.
