Because, in FED, he's not allowed to legally return. His retouch of first means nothing.
Let's take an extreme example -- BR hit a homerun, but misses first. He realizes it just after he touches home. He then retouches home, third, second, first, second, third and home. Are you going to deny the appeal at first?
