Foot movements are only really relevant when it comes to determining whether a player traveled during the try.

I the case of a layup, I agree.
One place where foot movements are significant is post play. If the post player gets the entry pass with his back to the basket, his foot movement, as part of his move to the basket, get my consideration when deciding if he was in the act or not when he gets fouled.
