In other sports, there is Defensive Interference and Offensive Interference.
In baseball, we refer to it as Obstruction (when the defense hinders a runner) and Interference (when the offense hinders a fielder).
Mixing up the terms will cause people to become confused and challenge you.

There is a Defensive Interference. It's called "Catcher's Interference" in OBR.
Jaksa/Roder refers to Catcher's Interference as "Defensive Interference." This is how they separated their chapters.
They have chapters on Spectator and Authorized Person Interference, Umpire Interference, Offensive Interference, Defensive Interference, and Obstruction.
I guess they didn't get the memo that it was confusing, and they probably get challenged constantly.
