Regular season
League average this year per team was 1916 free throw attempts compared to 1873 last year so we know this wasn't a league-wide trend
LeBron had 9.3 FTA per 100 possessions this year compared to 11 last year
46% of his shots were at the rim (0-3 ft) this year compared to 33% last year
Playoffs:
LeBron is first in FGA per game within 5 feet of the rim
LeBron is 45th in FTA per game

Its really an interesting phenomenon, Lebron has been getting less and less calls since Stern decided to step down and Silver became the new commissioner. Its kinda like, going from one extreme to the opposite extreme.

I hypothesize they're trying to promote a particular brand of basketball... One that the Warriors and Curry play.

Well Silver clearly tried to promote Durant in his early years. The fact that Durant gets more and more calls since 2013, with Lebron suddenly getting less calls is not a coincidence. Of course, with Durant going down last year, Silver seemed to have changed his mind. I have no idea which player hes promoting nowadays.

He also gets no calls when he travels or stiff arm bullies to the rim

Or maybe it's just easier not to foul when you know a guy isn't going to shoot it, and don't care if he does?

That's not what the research seems to suggest. Try to keep this fact based!
