That said, I think we tend to allow "two steps" on driving layups, in spite of the rule. In other words, we basically rule the dribble ended after the first step, even if it actaully ended before. I'm not sure whether it's a benefit-of-the-doubt thing or just being consistent.

For me, it's benefit of the doubt. I'm conditioned to see the layup as legal, so unless it's blatant, I don't call anything because I don't see it.
