Oddly (or maybe not), I had a discussion with a coach regarding a game this weekend who made a very similar argument.
ASA really, really does need to disabuse people of the notion that THEY put in their heads when the "about to receive" was first removed from the rule. The wrong statement about blocking the base is STILL in the RS on obstruction.
At least with about to receive, we didn't have to listen to this kind of nonsense.
