With obstruction, don't wait until the play is over to determine the award. Start making that decision at the time of the obstruction and stick to it. If you and your partner determined
at the time of the obstruction, the award was to be home, that is the award you should make a the end of the play.
Waiting until the end of the play could bring too many more factors into play.
