So be it! Foot washing was and is sacred to believers and believers only in the context of Jesus and the disciples and to inclusion into the kingdom of God.
Jesus nor the disciples were indiscriminate concerning apostolic practices.
Your judgmentalism is fine when one considers the warm and fuzzy theology present today in which giving handouts, clothes and now foot washing (pedicures also?) takes the place of obedience to God's word.
The apostles did not partake in a social gospel except in relation to the social construct of the new testament church.
