i had a coach question me on this play that happened the other day:

the pitcher throws a pickoff to first but just pivots on his pivot foot and doesn't lift it from the rubber. he seemed to think that his pivot foot has to lift for him to pick off someone at first.

i just told him that you NEVER EVER EVER have to disengage to pick someone off. the only thing that is required is a step directly towards the base.
