I disagree that I'm being narrow minded. There's no such thing as ANY of the things the OP was referring to. And I know you know that. There's no "right to the bag". There's no "duty to slide or avoid" required of a live runner. There's no "same obligation" on the fielder (not even sure what he's implying here --- that the fielder also must slide or avoid?).

My point was ... where are any of the things he's implying listed in the rulebook?
