Step one: was an advantage gained?
I ain't gonna flag a guy for wiggling his fingers while in a three-point stance. As long as the rest of him is stable, he's okay.
Stuff like that depends on the level. If it's a young age level, and there's an o-lineman who sets, then looks down, and then looks up somewhere in the cadence - he's technically moved, but I ain't gonna flag him for procedure.... unless the defence jumps.
That leniency ain't gonna fly at a higher level.
