Timing plays are just that and a specific thing. I made a incorrect statement that was easily shown to be false with an UNRELATED play; however, the logic I used to address the OP still stands IMO.
No, the logic you used to address the OP hinges on the mistaken thought that it is the ANNOUNCEMENT of the out that matters, when in ALL cases, it is the EVENT that caused such announcement that matters.
