I may be a minority on this, but I agree with the wording. Here's why. Like Mike said - 2 separate rules covering 2 separate scenarios. Yes, the obstructed runner is protected... But that same obstructed runner must still run the bases legally. And both interference and unsportsmanlike conduct by that same obstructed runner will negate the obstruction.
