IMO, too much supposition here. You can "what if" any play until you come up with the desired result. For that reason, I return to the interpretations from the past and hold the runner at 2nd UNLESS at the time of the tag, the runner was advancing and half or nearly half way to 3rd base at the time of the tag.
