One of the "elephant(s) in (my) room" is we cast plantigrade foot and yet most footwear (with an elevated 'flat' heel region) is not designed for same.

And, i know i've asked this one before, but is it ankle plantarflexion or forefoot plantarflexion that occurs?
Lots of ways to go with this, but how 'bout does the ankle joint position affect the ROM or position of other joints, is it obvious or has there been any research? And if it's forefoot plantarflexion isn't that needed to be considered?
A simple one, it's been a long time since i made alterations to a positive cast, is how do they nowadays prepare the positive to get that accommodation of the shank shape in?
Obviously this isn't an "elephant inthe room" in many if any other pod's so I'd appreciate advice to rid me of same, thanks, mark c
(someone said I'm just keeping my CPD points up, bastard!)
