1) Obviously, the batter becomes a BR on an uncaught third strike with 2 outs, regardless of runner(s).
2) I'm not sure if the confusion is in the interpretation or in the discussion or what you referred to with "He called it a "3rd strike rule"???".

4) Refer them to the "batter is out" section as well as the B bceomes a BR section.
