Also, actual heel-toe technique also made more sense back in the day when stopping a car meant basically standing on the pedal as hard as you could. You'd easily be able to lever over to the throttle with your heel because you'd be jamming the brake all the way down as hard as it would go to get your crappy-ass brakes to somehow stop your racecar.

You'd have to have superhuman abilities to hold your foot in place without any sort of anchor. With modern brakes being more than just basically an on/off switch, youd never be able to keep your braking pressure constant if you didn't keep your heel on the floor.
