I believe waiting is a different type of waste, the question is more focused on the unnecessary movements causing inefficiencies.

But wouldn't waiting also be a waste in this case?

I agree with Jose, motion waste is about unnecessary movements that can be reduced.

I see your point, Filiberto. It does make sense to organise work to reduce unnecessary movement.
