I said it presented a danger...newsflash it does...not that it presenting a danger makes it a foul in and of itself. Do try to keep up.

So to simply say no contact no foul is way outside the reality of the situation.

A better way to see it is some contact, that would not have happened without the flop, that while minimal was caused by a questionable act and is a safety issue for the players in the area and the flopper too.
Pardon me. I read between the lines to say that you might be influenced to call this a foul with an amount of contact that was not sufficient to make this call if not for the resulting unsafe situation. So if not that, then what was the point of mentioning the safety issue? Just trying to keep up.
