On the play in question, no interference. If we go by what we have seen other umpires call, then practically anything goes. I've seen umps call a runner out because the fielder might have become distracted by hearing the runner's footsteps.
However:
"We are talking about the organization which wants umpires to rule on a 3' lane violation on a walk."
Wasn't aware of that. Exactly what are they saying?
