You yourself stated "typically free actions do not provoke". So a typical free action is one that does not provoke.
Please show me some support for this, because I can't find it stated anywhere in the rules. I've shown two cases where an action that normally provokes is specifically stated as still provoking when done as a free action, but I don't see it as a general rule. It looks like those are specific exceptions.Free actions provoke if the action you are doing provokes.
Standing up from prone provokes. Turning it into a free action does not stop that unless the feat says that it stops that.
Free actions typically do not provoke. I don't see where it is stated that this free action provokes, unlike the examples that I listed. You have chosen not to address those examples, but they support my position.
This is really stretching Cal.
Please don't make this personal KD. It's not "really stretching" just because you disagree with it.
