From what I read, the only reason that the runner is not on the bag is beacause F3 pushed, shoved, "blocked", or whatever the runner OFF the bag. If the runner gets there safely and F3 does anything to knock him off the bag, then I've got the runner safe. Baseball was never intended to be a wrestling match.
If however, the base was blocked...legally...and the runner comes off the bag on his own, whether by momentum, adjusting, or simple stupidity...then his butt is out.

The way I understand it is that there was no pushing or shoving at all. As F3 is receiving the throw at the base he is legally in a position between the runner and the base. As the runner goes to step on the base, he steps on F3's foot and NOT the base. F3 tags the runner while he is in contact with F3's foot and NOT in contact with the base. Out.
