Great, then we are all in agreement on the original play. Since the runner arrived at the plate a moment ahead of the ball, a tag is required.

If you go back and re-read my posts, you can see where my thoughts have evolved to this point. You have finally stated what I've been saying all along: If the catcher would have to chase the runner, then a simple appeal suffices. But if the runner is close enough to the plate so that the catcher does not have to chase, then the runner needs to be tagged.
