You are allowed to make incidental contact with the receiver (or defender) when "competing" for the ball. Call it what you want but that's the verbiage that is used.

Now you change your claim to something entirely different. ....

Not at all. If the defender (or receiver) is making a play on the ball or "competing for the ball" and he makes incidental contact with the opponent in the process - it's not interference. That is exactly what Landry did. An Arkansas defender did it to an LSU receiver in the first quarter too. A penalty wasn't called on either play.
