My first concern is the line of putt, and that does not extend past the hole. When there are 4 players on the green, all putting from different angles, trying to attend the flagstick and manage your shadow without stepping on someone's primary line can be hard enough. I'm not going to overly concern myself with the return putt until it's an actual fact.

I will reach as far as possible to remove the flagstick, and I will avoid everyone's line of putt when I do so, but I can't predict how badly anyone is going to miss the hole, so not stepping on someones run-through line is something of a crap shoot.

I don't play on the Tour, and I don't play with pros very often. Even when I do play with one or more of the course pros, they've never expressed any such concerns. In fact, in 35 years, no one I've ever played with has said a single word about it. I can't say that I've ever blamed a missed come-backer on someone stepping on my run-through line.
