Say that B2 pushes A2 in the back as he is making his cut on an out pattern - illegal use of hands. A1 (QB) is focused only on this receiver so he gets sacked for a 10 yard loss.
Since he never threw the pass, it is a running play, right?
So the spot of enforcement for the penalty is the end of the run. Doesn't seem fair. Or am I getting this wrong?

Florida Rookie, when I started up quite a while ago, I was given a really good packet that explained penalty enforcement. It had some great plays, with diagrams explaining if loose ball, running play, and everything else covered under the "all but one" principle. I will look for it when I get home, and if I have it, I would be happy to share it with you. It explained it very, very well and is a great tool for any new official.
