I'll have to say that you are wrong, here. Please see Jaksa/Roder, Chapter 10, section II (pg 59) for an interpretation and example of a non-appeal "fourth out" play. In short, "fourth out" plays are NOT limited to appeals.

However, you may be right in saying that a runner can not correct a missed base after three outs. Perhaps someone who knows for sure might help us out.
