My theory is this. BR is safe. To be out, ball has to BEAT runner to F3.
But the rule says it the other way... The runner must beat the ball.

Your contrary/complimentary statement only confounds the issue of the tie. The rule says the runner must beat the ball... if the runner doesn't beat the ball, they should be called out.
