It's simply a long way processing through the rule to end up with the runner can't actually be out for passing an obstructed runner. Yes, by rule the runner is out for passing but then you have to fix it so the runner really wasn't out after all.

It is very simple--what would have happened had obstruction not occurred?
A triple and 2 runs score.
So fix it.
Are you going to reward the defense for screwing up?

But what if the OBS has run out of protection when passed?
