Yes that would let BU know where his partner is and where he should be. And now this is a question wouldn't the PU loudly yelling OUT maybe give BU the abilty to focus more on R1 at 2nd and keep R2 in his side vision waiting for the OUT.???

The runner can leave as soon as the ball is touched. It's not a catch until F9 securely holds the ball. U1 should be watching the ball and the runner and not waiting for a verbal from PU.
99% of the time, R1 will not be tagging in this situation.
