(Rhetorical question- not aimed specifically at Andy)

The FED "pitcher foot placement diagrams" under Rule 6 show the pivot foot starting with (gauging from the scale) maybe an inch or two of the heel on top of the plate and the rest of the foot in front of it and denote this as "Legal".

Wouldn't that have about the same net effect as having 1/8" or 1/16" of the heel on top of the rubber, with respect to where the pitcher was "pushing off"?

Yes, not a nit worth picking- and, possibly not even a nit to begin with!
