Maybe I'm not understanding your concern, but I can certainly envision where a BU from C (and even B) might guess that F3 didn't stay on the bag when she made a huge stretch for the ball when the BU didn't have a decent angle to see for sure, and the PU sees that she did. If you saw with 100% surety that F3 maintained contact, but your partner felt otherwise, why wouldn't you want to give him/her what you clearly had?
