mc, setting this situation aside, where probably the players never even heard of IFF, would you at least concede that at any decent level of play IFF is the expected call by players and coaches alike when its on.. and you just call it - and is a much easier sell than telling a coach "well I thought your SS cant catch so I didnt call IFF" or even "well I thought your SS couldnt really get to the ball since she injured her knee running bases so ordinary effort would not have made the catch"

The whole IF is covered by players and at any real level of play the O and D know the call is coming and expect it, reacting accordingly, and you are picking boogers to not call it due to some nuance you read into the rule IMO.
