Fun with Rules

ASA:

Infield: That portion of the field in fair territory that includes the area normally covered by infielders.

Bunt: A pitched ball that is intentionally tapped with the bat slowly in the infield

7.6 Batter Is Out
G (Fast Pitch) When the batter bunts foul after the second strike. If the ball is caught before touching the ground, it remains live.
H (Slow Pitch) When the batter bunts or chops the ball.

So if a bunt must be fair, how can G ever come into effect? And in H, if the ball goes foul is it still considered a bunt?
