It wasn't the terminology he got wrong. It was the requirement. Significant difference.
YOU may know, or think you know, what he meant, but the lurkers will just see the wrong requirement. Not good.

No No! The tag-up must be at (or after) the time the ball is touched by the fuielder.

The phrase you highlighted needs to be read together with the part before it, especially, "the runner(s) can advance at their own risk
