Some things I thought of while reading this thread were:
1) sometimes refs are looking at contact up high between the two post players and do not pay close attention to the feet.
2) As a coach, you should be ready to coach "adjustment" to your players, depending on how the refs are calling; be it traveling calls, or a tight game, or a loose game. If your players have 0 fouls, they are not playing aggressive enough or if they foul out, they were playing too aggressive. If the drop step is being called a travel for that game, time to do something else.
3) I agree it is a travel and when I recognize it in my games, I call it. I think it gets called up here consistently.

* Depending on if you're at the Lead or Trail position for 2 person and or Center in 3 person mechanics. Your Trail should look off ball to help Lead with the high/low calls, then shift eyes to the rim for the shot.
* You can still play aggressive and not have any team fouls.
* I do the same but so many other ref's should take time to view some videos on traveling violations.
