what he tried to do: 1) feint toward third by stepping there, 2) break contact with the rubber (although that's not really needed in FED) and become an infielder, 3) throw to second.

It's just a variation on the 3-1 play.

he just made it "too tricky"

So in a sense - aside from where he stepped - in FED it would be a legal move, but not where OBR is used?
