One way I prefer to frame this topic revolves around the effect of any such movement....

If the defender has initial LGP, does the movement of the defender increase or create the contact or does it actually decrease, lessen, or soften the contact. If it is the latter, it is probably not a block....as would be the case when stepping away from the shooter.

Very well stated.
