I think we see a play like this more often in terms of timing on a swinging strike three with R1 stealing. I don't think all instances of Interference have to be intentional.

Entirely different. A batter who has just swung and missed is either out or still a batter, unless it is an uncaught 3rd strike. In this case, he is now a runner, and his movements are those of a runner, not a retired batter.
