A Law Professor Once Asked Me:
Would you answer a hypothetical question if I asked one?
I think I gave him the same answer I have for your "condition wrapped" play, and that is: " "
Seriously, though, I prefer not to engage in technicalities for the sake of technicalities. Baseball, even with third world plays, exists in a real world with real time.
Presented with your scenario, and assuming that a fielder did not glove the ball to make it appear even more foul, which I believe is far more likely than F5 standing around picking his nose, I would as PU NOT walk up to study the ball, I would take several steps make my decision based on the position of the ball, and yell foul ball real loud as soon as it stopped moving.
Any round object that is factually 70% in foul territory is going to appear 100% in foul territory in the real world.
