Not sure how you don't get umpire jeopardy on #2. In my mind, if the girl is stealing, let the steal play out (out or safe based on what happens). If she's reacting to a Ball 4 call she's going back when we bring the BR back.

If "tags R1 before she reaches 2nd" was in sit 2, but there was no ruling that affected her on the clean steal ("An appeal is made after the runner has advanced to 2nd.").

Even if the ruling was before R1 reached 2nd, if no tag out, why not a successful steal?

Ok, with a tag out in sit 2, different story.

Did the defense hear "Ball 4" and not make a play on the runner? If they stopped playing, should you account for that as well?

I'm not sure if we're imagining the same thing. I have a ball that comes in with a checked swing. Ball. BR starts down to first. Coach wakes up the runner on 1st and sends her to second. Pitcher holds the ball while the coach convinces the catcher to get the umpire to check with his partner. In that situation, I'm saying bring her back to 1st. She only advanced because of the late appeal. (Or what if she committed a LBR violation since there was no BR.) I'm positing that the ruling for a runner who advances because of an award that is rescinded has to return.

Baseball makes it easy:

Baserunners must be alert to the possibility that the base umpire on appeal from the plate umpire may reverse the call of a ball to the call of a strike, in which event the runner is in jeopardy of being out by the catcher’s throw.

I believe this was discussed a couple of years ago in baseball (NFHS) where the umpire will correct any action that puts a player in jeopardy.

Please look at the 2015 Case book 10.2.2 the umpire will correct the error. I think MLB calls it an out.
