Wait what? You drive a manual and use the left foot to hit the brakes? Recipe for disaster.

Nah, their left is full on clutch, their right foot is between the accelerator and brake pressing both at the same time.

Correct. Left foot on the clutch as I was (in every one of these situations) backing out slowly. Then I see the pedestrian, lift foot off the gas and jam it on the brake. I guess, in my panic, I don't move the right foot far enough to the left (to get it fully off the gas pedal).

This is part of why I hate nose-in parking.
