i won't argue your point on the shifts but motion is very valuable and always has been. it can determine pre-snap if they are in man or zone. it also makes someone account for that man when you use him in end arounds/jet sweeps, quick screens/passes to him as he finishes his motion outside, etc. decoys aka ghost motion is used by NFL teams also. If you think motion is useless you have just shown TD your football ignorance. congrats.
^ This guy gets it. Motioning a player is very valuable especially at certain times/downs and keeps the defense honest. As far as switching tackles/tight ends only to have them mirror the original set, that has me scratching my head.

It's a test. By watching how the linebackers, corners, and safety personel react to the players in motion, the qb can get a very good read on whether the defense will be playing a man or a zone after he snaps the ball. This gives him a preview of where the defense will be, helping with timing routes, and whether he should audible to give the ball to someone else since most of those motion plays are options. If the defense is playing man, maybe he habds it off on the jet sweep, but if they're still n sone, he hands it off up the middle or keeps it and throws.
