Gmoore:
This has been thrashed to death here & elsewhere: thus the "attitude".
Your point:
"2-24-1 tells us what a force out is---correct?" is useless, as the definition of force PLAY [2-29-3] is the only place where the rule book tells us who is "forced to advance". BR is not "forced to advance" per 2-29-3. BR cannot be a "force out" before reaching 1st. QED.
Ain't "my version": it's what's in the Rule Book. The Rule is the same whether you are speaking FED or OBR.
BR isn't "forced" at 1st [but you will still call the usual play correctly if you can't bring yourself to accept this: you'll only booger the TWP's, only umpires will care, and not many of them.].
