In real life "Inside Forwards" are flanking players that prefer to cut inside with the ball from the flanks to the central area instead of running with the ball down the flanks as "Wingers" prefer to do.
So in real life when an Inside Forward cuts inside with the ball from the flank to the central area he controls the ball with the foot opposite to the side he's playing.
Speaking other words, in real life when an Inside Forward that plays on the left flank cuts inside with the ball to the central area he controls the ball with his right foot so he must be comfortable using his right foot.
But how does it work in FM24? Whether the preferred foot rating has an impact on the performance of Inside Forwards in FM24?

Inside Forward Preferred Foot
QUESTION: Does the Preferred Foot matter for Inside Forwards in FM24? ANSWER: No, it seems doesn't matter.

CA matters? I thought it was only the main attributes

The logic is that if you were to train the weak foot on your player it would take up valueable CA that would be better used towards the meta attributes for optimizing your player's performance.

No data to prove this but I had the same feeling while starting my Inside Forwards where some of them can play both wings but are proficient with only one foot. I didn't feel any drop off in their ratings/results. Great job for providing an evidence for this.
