Not speaking for Mike, but I don't see the runner either impeded nor hindered to this point in the pictures. No evidence she altered her path, she is sliding straight in (as if that is her intended path), and there is no contact with the defender at this point.
I would need to see either 1) contact before the ball is possessed by the fielder, or 2) indication she slowed down or altered her path because the fielder was in her intended path. I see neither (at this point or with those pictures).
The position of the fielder in her path is not obstruction by itself without the runner being hindered or impeded in some way.
