Not that you're wrong but I think that's a little misleading. As long as one foot stays on or over the 3 foot area, the other foot can be as far away as the player can stretch, not just a half step. The space is 36 inches wide. If the left foot is touching anywhere within the spot, even as wide as the outside edge, and the right foot is extended 3 feet beyond, the player is still legal as long as the left foot stays on or over the spot.
