bossman72,
I would say you have pretty much nailed this one. Same logic on an "advantageous 4th out" appeal.
For example, if we modify your original sitch so that the defense attempts to play on R2 (instead of R3) and, instead of throwing the ball wildly, actually makes a good throw and R2 is tagged out at the plate (for the third out), a subsequent successful appeal of the R3's failure to retouch on the catch would nullify the R3's apparent run.
