Personally, I continue to believe that the shoe carnival could be eliminated without any adverse effect on air safety. But if there is going to be a rule, it should be enforced for everyone (unless of course you support profiling

I would however be curious to know if sufficient explosive gel could be stored in baby shoes.

While babies are children, not all children are babies. Haven't yet heard of baby suicide bombers, although I have heard of bombing babies, often by state-actors.
More gel can be stored in a baby's diaper than in their shoes. And which TSAer is going to volunteer to be a diaper monitor & diaper changer?

Does that require danger pay?
