The same rule that is telling you that the defensive player must use the white tells you that the offense must use the orange... while that's obviously not true in the OP. You can't insist that half of the rule applies when obviously the other half doesn't.
The safety bag is for SAFETY - for a BR coming from home and the first baseman. It's not meant as a gotcha on other plays.
