Is this a legal play or some kind of violation?

I don't see a violation because A1 never established a pivot foot.

That might be relevant to traveling, but not to illegal dribble or other violations, which was kinda his point.

It is possible to travel without having ever had a pivot foot.

True, however, that is not the case here and as Nevada has pointed out 4.15.4E(b) doesn't fit.
