But there's no written rule about using a foot, right?
So if I understand your interpretation of the situation it goes like this:
If there's more than 11cm (the width of my shoe) between the solid obstacle and my marker I have to play the marker lie.
If there's 10cm I can play immediately behind the solid object. But if my wife (with 8cm wide shoes) had thrown that same shot she would be required to play the marker lie, not behind the solid obstacle as I would.
To me that seems silly that this rule would apply differently to different players.

Don't those two statements contradict themselves?
