I'm not saying 2 steps is 30 feet. I'm saying a defender could move 15-30 feet while a pass is in the air (1-2 seconds). The receiver could check his path, turn for the ball, and the defender could move into his path. It's not like this type of collision is rare. They happen all the time. Again, the point is the defender doesn't have to give *any space* according to the rule once the pass is caught. Why do you even mention "2 steps"?
