Probably interference on the BR.

The rule supports the quality throw concept on the thought that you cannot interfere with catching an uncatchable throw.

A runner can exit the lane at the base to touch the base, BUT - if he's out of the lane all the way he's then subject to an interference call.
Agreed, but the practical implication of "quality throw" is nearly identical to "the throw must come from the box." I agree it's not an absolute, but I've never had a quality throw from outside the box hit a runner to cause interference.
