Gee;
Well I think what they "extended" to all bases was the "in the vicinity" aspect of 7.10(d). But, as I said in my last post, I think that 7.10(d) [alone] vs. 7.10(b) [as modified by the "in vicinity" extension from 7.10(d)] may be a distinction without a difference and, as you say, you can ignore (b) for all practical purposes, with one possible exception:
Explaining a call to a typical coach or [eventually] Protest Committee might be easier using the Rule printed in the book that at least APPEARS to relate to the play you are calling. Absent the Official Interp., it will be hard to convince anyone [witness ME] that 7.10(d) has anything at all to do with a play on the bases.
