It's easy enough to see why anyone could pass on this in real time because they either weren't sure or just couldn't see the left foot on the floor at the moment the dribble ended.
Or they did not think he hand control at that point. There are other explanations for why things are called. And if it was so "obvious" then the folks would have described the play to great detail. But instead we get hyperbole of how far the move started, which was not true BTW.
