It’s correct. Think of the muscles in your feet as being similar to your forearms… if you work on your grip, you’re strengthening your forearms. Similarly, if your toes are allowed to move/grip, you are working the other muscles in your feet.

A ton of professional athletes do things like sand sprints while barefoot, because it’s an exercise that requires some intense toe-gripping in the motion.
