I would agree, Sam. But there's this "not over the batter's head" clause in both the ASA and the Fed definition. A ball bunted foul off to the side and caught meets their criteria for being a foul tip. A pitch that is over the batter's head and "tipped" into the catcher's glove does not fit their definition and therefore must be an out, even if it acts as if it never touched the bat at all. Without the "over the head" clause, I'd have no problem at all knowing a foul tip when I saw it.
