Gee Whiz,
It has only been discussed for 100 posts over the years.
Play cannot start until all players are legally in position.
I am amazed that anyone hasn't heard this example over-and-over. It is the play discussed at all professional schools . . . and in all documents.
Do you really not believe the reference?
Baseball rules, unlike other sports, don't necessarily follow advantage/disadvantage philosophies.
It is universially accepted as one of three recognized "Do Overs" in Baseball
(See Balk @ NCAA level on an IBB).
