[ATLA] A really, really weird question regarding Toph's feet

Background: I'm watching the series for the very first time in my life with my SO. I'd never seen it as a kid even if it aired on Nickelodeon so yes this is really my first time seeing it, and so far I'm loving it big time! I'd appreciate if nobody spoiled me in the comments plx, we're almost halfway through book 3 of ATLA.

So, we all know Toph can see and bend with her feet and is totally badass. She needs her feet to see so she understandably spends most of her time barefoot. We also know the show aired on and, I assume, belongs to Nickelodeon.

Does anybody else think this whole feet thing is a fetish? Nickelodeon isn't unfamiliar with shady foot fetish stuff going on in their kids' series, re: Dan Schneider.

Before you go on to call me crazy or pervy or weird in the comments, hear me out: maybe one of the producers or the writers suggested it during the early stages of the series and they went with it because they have coherent background for it. Schneider's recent controversy and proof that he did in fact introduce foot fetish shots plenty of times on his series and went unnoticed for so long got me thinking about it, and now every time I see a shot of Toph's bare feet I can't help but think someone specifically put that into the series to get their rocks off (no pun intended), the same way a previous Nickelodeon producer did before. Am I weird for thinking this?
