Uh, no it's not, at leaset not what you described.

It's almost never called,
Thank goodness.

however they are beginning to teach this to us more often.
Could you give me an estimate of how many times "they've" taught you this?

Runner should be safe at home on OBS by the catcher.
Of course...when the runner is actually obstructed.
