Who cares what the runner thinks. I've had guys get hit-by-pitch before and stay there to hit...should I not award them 1B, because they didn't think they were hit? In all reality, the runner may truly not know what obstruction is or how to interpret it.
On that note, maybe we do agree, but I'm interpreting your post to say that since the runner didn't argue, then it must not be OBS.
