EDITED: After a 2nd thought on this, aren't the "other runners" only given the bases the umpire thought they would have made, if the obstructed runner is called out? In this case the obstructed runner (R1) was never called out therefore isn't the BR a moot point as far as any award?

Don't know about Fed, but ASA (which I would think is similar). ALL runners affected by an obstruction are awarded the bases which, in the umpire's judgment, they would had obtained had the OBS not occurred.
