How does this jibe with interpretation #19?
I would NEVER call this, regardless of how "FED" wants it called.

Maybe its the quality of ball where I live, but I would never consider calling interference on a bad throw.
Now if F2 makes a quality throw which hits the runner (which would be the way the catcher's around here would have been taught - hit him in the back of the head), then we will consider interference.
Don't bail out F2 on his inability to pick up the ball and throw it to F3.
