lets say the unintentional interference (no budp, BR awarded 1stbase) happend AFTER R3 scored, does he still have to return ? i don't think so....

Yes, R3 returns. Seems harsh don't it. But let's look at it another way. Maybe R1 interferes someday on a play where F4 had a clean shot at a play at the plate. Maybe R3 is the winning run in the bottom of the 9th. Then it wouldn't seem so harsh. The offense messed up. The offense is penalized.
