No intention necessary. I proposed to change this rule last year to cover accidental interference, but it failed.
In this play, the ball is dead and the BR declared out.

Of course, "intentional" is now out of all interference criteria; if I understand the changes correctly.
Ignoring that, why would you treat interference with a D3K differently than with a batted ball?
And why does that rule say
dropped 3K and not
uncaught 3K?
