The more I watch it, the more I think he did it to open his shoulders. With just that little toe-pick, it gives him a way to open his hips and keep his shoulders pointed downhill.
Without that back foot, what's he have to turn against? It didn't add any torque; he wasn't set on that leg at all. It just allowed him to open up and keep his shoulders square to the target for that little snap throw.
Like I said - I don't think he thought about it for an instant. I think his body just did it for him.
