The runners lane rule was originally put in to prohibit the runner from intentionally crashing into the first baseman thereby preventing a putout. At one time, this was legal. They failed to address the rule when the bases were put entirely in fair territory. This is why there are interpretations concerning when the runner can leave the lane in order to touch the base. They should rewrite the rule preventing the crash and other intentional acts by the runner.
The DH is open to both leagues within MLB. The NL chooses not to use it. The DH rule will never go away. If anything, the NL will eventually adopt it.
