Those were rhetorical questions, bluezebra. Of course those are not outs. They are examples of how the rule book cannot be taken literally.

The question is, Can a runner who has been put out (and is by rule book definition no longer a runner) still assist another runner?

By the way, not only can a trailing runner assist. It could also be a preceding runner, as long as nobody passes anyone.
