I know of one where it might matter, but even then, I don't think it actually does.
A BR may not back up to avoid a tag, a runner may.

On a play from fair territory, the BR must use the colored portion of 1B if there is a play at 1B, the runner is not required to do so.

A BR may run through the bag to which they are advancing becoming a runner, a runner may not without placing themselves into jeopardy.

A BR can be ruled out for creating interference with a ball thrown to 1B without it being intentional, a runner must intentionally interfere with a thrown ball for INT to be ruled.

Just a couple off the top of my head.
