It does NOT belong in the section about when a BR is out.
We'll just have to agree to disagree on that point.

Why do you think it doesn't belong in the section about when a BR is out...
BR is the only one that can be out for touching the wrong half of the base. It cannot be in the section about when a RUNNER is out because a runner cannot be called out for touching the wrong half of the base (which, incidentally, is how you explain it to the coach, and when he trots out rule 8.2 and you point out to him that ENTIRE SECTION is about the batter-runner, and the player he's complaining about is a runner... the discussion is over).
