I don't care which ruleset (and believe there is more to be said to each), but the DDB on the IP has to end when the runner commits interference.

As to the rest, here's some thoughts to consider with each ruleset.

Does/should the option to enforce the IP rather than the result of the play erase a malicious act along with the rest of the play?

Does interference supercede an IP (like it does obstruction)?
OK, correct, IMMEDIATE DB for INT, no continuing play.
I should have stayed with face value and not try to overthink.

That means B2 can't be safe and B2 would get a ball in the count and finishes batting if IP penalty stays. But, the INT penalty awards B2 1st base, so the IP is ignored.
