While that is true, it doesn't change the fact that no run can score when the batter-runner is put out prior to reaching first base. The live ball appeal establishes the batter-runner failing to touch results in that ruling.

So, why would ASA be worded that way?

It's not.
But implying the answer to the question might be rule-set dependent is wrong. This is no run in any rule set (and all of the small ball rule-sets as well, if anyone cares).

Yes, my mistake.
