I don't know if I agree with this faking a throw to first rationale. I'd explain it this way: when an in-contact pitcher throws to first base, he must either throw the ball TO the base or to the first baseman who is making a play on the runner. The play itself doesn't have to be close; rather, F3 simply has to be making a play. I do remember that's how Evans once explained it, I believe possibly even in his balk video.
