I agree that the momentum to be gained is the advantage. Without the orange base, we don't allow a runner to start 1 stride behind First - so there's no reason to allow them to start behind the (white) base when we do have an orange base.

In fall ball, I'd probably tell the base coach one time, then call the out afterward. That gives the coach the chance to fix the violation. When it recurs, call the out.
