So what?
Shoes don't come off often. I just don't think it's in the spirit of the game to expect A to play with 4 players on an entire possession that hasn't even started yet. And I think it might be dangerous for B to play without a shoe, which is what would happen if I let play continue.
If A1 had twisted an ankle, I'd stop the game there. 8-2d handles situations other than injury.
Subs can enter for either team and all out of breath players (on both teams) can get a breather, so those aren't really points that concern me too much.
