I am not arguing with you but I would be interested on why you think that teaching someone to be selective on their play calling. Don't you think this can make or brake an official?
Yes, it can make or brake (sic) an official. Not calling travelling in this situation would brake (sic) the official.

Now, if the player received the ball on the move, and you were not sure whether s/he received it just before or just after the (say) right foot left the ground, I'd agree that we'd "decide" it was after, the left foot becomes the pivot and the right foot can touch the ground again.

To the original poster, don't think of the rule as "the number of steps that can be taken." Think of it as "allowable movement of the pivot foot."
