As I noted elsewhere, like Obamacare, this is ass backwards.

Cannot have a collision without the runner plowing over the catcher, so have the courage to penalized the runner for the act being committed and trust (and force) the umpires to make the OBS calls WHEN OBSTRUCTION OCCURS.

They are placing the demands, restrictions and penalties at the wrong end of the issue.
