My understanding is that means subsequent to the ball becoming dead, not subsequent to the CO.
In the uncaught strike 3 case with the BR thrown out at 1st, the runner(s) could have advanced before the out.
Speaking ASA.

I don't understand your post. The word subsequent means to follow in time, order or place. I clearly stated that "time" to be that which followed the BR being ruled out.

If you are ruling the BR was put out, it is a dead ball, not a delayed dead ball. Therefore, there is no action to wait on whether the runner on first is stealing, returning or doing back-flips toward right field
