I’m not surprised by that at all because as I stated, in my very first post in this thread, it was on the step through topic. I played college and semi- pro in the early -mid 2000s and there was no step through. If you lifted your pivot foot, it was a travel. they were allowed to use the step through in WNBA and overseas.
I almost asked the question to the NT official Refs (

if they actually played, or if they were the armchair analytics type but honestly it’s not that big of deal to me.
This summer off the top of my head I can recall two tournaments I was coaching in ( one in LA and the other in Vegas ) were we played circuit teams so I would assume the refs should be aware of the current rules and they still called a step through a travel. I know because I got T’d up after arguing the 3rd time it was called as well as Kendrick Perkins being thrown out of that same gym by the same official .
