What the case book play does say is two things.
1) You can't initially obtain LGP with a foot on the lane. So now the no time or space rule can't apply to a defender.
2) A defender can't move to maintain LGP if it involves putting a foot OOB.
This by no means says an automatic block just because someone has a foot OOB.

You have the right to your place on the floor if you reach it legally. If you're foot is on the line have your reached your place legally?
