As long as you made me full stop after your first point, I took you up on it. "Safe" does not equate to "hit." Safe means "not out" and therefore he has a right to the bag. How he got there is not the umps concern. If a player juggles the ball and the runner beats the throw, and the ump says "safe" - it may be a hit. Or it may be an error. It is not for the ump to decide - he's just there to say safe or out. Safe clearly doesn't always mean hit.

Would love to read the rest, but you told me to "full stop." That means don't go anymore.

Only one of us knows what ‘full stop’ means and has applied it correctly.

Your little semantic hand-wave to excuse your departure from the argument isn’t even witty, let alone germane.

I have been willing to be reasonably argumentative, ‘til now. You have ceased to hold up your end. Instead, you have merely achieved a ‘plonk’. ( As Steve Jobs used to say, ‘You have set your Bozo Bit, and it’s ‘write-only’. )

Have a nice life.
