I see your points, and well taken. I meant to imply B provided a new force with the muff. We would need to be very careful in applying this rule.
In other words if the fumble was bouncing away from the goal line, then I'm assuming we can say if B changed the direction we would rule safety. If B added to the same direction the bouncing ball was going (toward the goal line) then we would rule touchback.
I have never had this happen (close though) but thought to put this out there.
