"What advantage is there for her being behind the base?"
She can gain more forward momentum if she correctly times the pitch I would think. Maybe there is a slight advantage there.
"Treat the safety base as non-exsistent"
Thats what I've always been told in clinics. Once 1B is attained by BR, the orange base disappears.
I must agree with CecilOne, just tell the runner to get on the base.
