I'll type this out slowly, because obviously people are not getting it.
There was no impeding the runner. The runner quickly and smartly touched HP. The runner is up and cheering and leaving yeah!! I score.
Youre standing there. Now you and some others will now call OBS, then say shes safe. "Obstruction safe" Everyone is looking at you like "man we got this dummy again, whats he doing". That is lame. Thats not the call.
I did not see her get impeded, I'm selling safe crowd goes wild 1/2 of everyone everyone is happy.

I understand your point. I was just responding to the "runner was safe anyway" part of your post. I was simple pointing out that we call it when we see it regardless of whether or not we have to award bases or not. That was my only point.
