What's the difference, except for the words?

If it was a bunt attempt with 2 strikes, big difference.

Not really, it's still a dead ball, foul. On your occasion, it just means the batter is out.

We are talking about ground rules to cover a batted ball contacting a backstop that actually overhangs fair territory. It is entirely reasonable for the ground rule to rule this a dead ball, but not a foul ball. This would mean a player attempting a bunt with 2 strikes would not be out with a foul ball if the batted ball contacts the backstop over fair territory.
