I'm definitely seeing this different from what you are and don't necessarily mean to imply I'm correct.

What am I missing?
Correct, the basic spot is the end of the run, but this is a foul by the offense behind the basic spot, so that it where the penalty is enforced. All-but-one penalty enforcement - see rule 10-6 pages 72-73.
