You are correct - wrong wording on my part - it should have read.
If YES, did the runner reach the base he WOULD have achieved? YES/NO.
If YES, was he attempting to ADVANCE or RETURN. If ADVANCE, ignore obstruction and result of play stands. If RETURN, award once base past base safely returned to.
If NO to first question either way award base runner WOULD have achieved if no obstruction.
