I've read posts from umpires declaring to refuse to call accidential appeals on force plays and now declaring to ignore the Fed inteprtation of "after a pitch".

If we all decide to ignore the rules that we don't like, how long before the games decend to disorder, and we end up ejecting coaches every game because they don't like "our" rules?

Fed has been consistant and reasonably clear on what the current rule is. If you take an assignement to call using Fed rules, you should call by their rules!
