With regard to base running, Rule 8-4-2j is an extension of Rule 8-4-2. This rule change stipulates that there shall not be any accidental appeals on a force play, in order to be definitive in all aspects of the appeal process
"Not be any accidental appeals" applies only to missed bases, not regular play. In regular play, a fielder could still, obviously without intent, happen to touch a base to which the runner is forced. The runner is out, intent/accident or not. In fact, there never was an accidental appeal. It was actually an accidental force play (or out at 1B before the BR arrives).
