If the player would only have traveled had he lifted his right foot during the fake pass, and you don't know if he did, then you shouldn't make the call. You can only call what you see. If you don't see him lift the foot, then you shouldn't assume it.

I'm not suggesting that you assume anything. I was just giving an example which shows that a travel can be called without knowing which foot was the pivot.
When a player leaves point A and ends up at point B with one foot followed by the other, this is a travel, whether you saw which foot was first or not. This is not something that happens a lot, but, in varying degrees it happens. If you only call a travel when you can exactly retrace every step, you probably aren't calling enough.
