It's not even really a "baseball vs. softball" thing.

Some softball associations other than ASA rule this the same as the OBR baseball rules and prohibit guiding the ball to the ground. Some even enforce the out if a fielder allows the ball to drop untouched when it could have otherwise been caught with ordinary effort!

The ASA rule is clear enough, just different than some of the others. To each their own, I guess!
