In thinking about interpretations of the rule, I can see were one would be applicable.
There could be some greater direction or interpretation as to when a possible appeal starts versus when a runner returning to a base that is missed actually aquired that base.
If the BR missed 2nd on his way to third and then is directed back to the 2nd base by the 3rd base coach who sees that he missed second, there could be a debate about when the appeal starts. Does the appeal have to be initiated before the runner reaches the base or does it have to be completed before the base is reached the BR who missed it, in order to be called out?

It is only too likely that neither of us has any knowledge to boast of; but he thinks that he knows something which he does not know, whereas I am quite conscious of my ignorance. At any rate it seems that I am wiser than he is to this small extent, that I do not think that I know what I do not know. ~Socrates
