I know Fed is different. Pete's explanation is what I figured was correct, even though the umpire can only guess what Abel would have done or where he would have been absent the OBS.
If after tripping Abel had continued toward 2B and been put out, I guess it would be type A OBS—Abel was being played upon—and Abel would be awarded 2B, regardless of by how much he was out.
