Even over the ankle work boots aren't good enough in my opinion. You need boots that have sufficient armor to protect your feet, ankles and lower legs from injury. You don't even have to be moving to injure yourself.

This is so true, and so many people feel that any over the ankle boot is acceptable.
I honestly have to partly blame the MSF course...they require only 'over the ankle' boots and I think some people mistake that requirement for the class...as being an acceptable standard for street use. Of course they are overlooking that at the MSF, you stay at low speeds and usually in second gear.
I stick to this basic rule: Expect to lose, damage, or maim any part of your body that is not covered in gear designed to protect motorcyclists.
