Take the same play (remember starting with R3), but when R3 overruns third, the defense makes a move to tag him. R3 runs directly to second, reaches it and is standing on the base when the defense tags him. Now what's your ruling?
Me? I'd have an out.
And, since R3 can't "retreat" to second, he can't "retreat past third." So, he's not required to touch third again.
