Nope, you are dead wrong my friend. Show me in the rule book. There is no such thing.

The "tie" has to go to somebody ... it goes to the runner.

If the runner and the ball arrive at the same time and it's judged a "tie" then there is no clear cut way to decide if the runner is safe or out. The runner is always given the benefit of the "tie" ... whether or not it is officially spelled out in the rule book, it's still a long-standing fact.

Tie has always gone to the runner in baseball.

The wording of rule 5.09(a)(10), formerly 6.05(j), of the Official Baseball Rules is that a batter is out when "After a third strike or after he hits a fair ball, he or first base is tagged before he touches first base". Since in a tie situation, the runner reaches the base before the base is touched or he is tagged out, then he is safe. Although not specifically stated "tie goes to the runner", it is interpreted as such.

But in the same sense, the ball has to beat the runner to first base to be out.

The OP is right, there is no tie. If the ball is caught at the same time the runner steps on the base then the runner beat the ball its not considered a tie. "Tie goes to the runner" is just a saying because in fact a tie means the runner has beat the ball getting there regardless if it is at the same time.

You just contradicted what the OP and yourself said, if the ball is caught at the same time the runner's foot hits the base then the runner did not beat the ball, and the ball was not caught before the runner touched the base, therefore, a tie.
What the rule actually means is that in a bang bang play that is hard to discern with the naked eye which one was first the benefit of the doubt will go to the runner.
It's very rare that an actual tie would occur, just simply due to physics, but if it's a split second difference that's hard to tell without slow motion replay.
Some people are just too literal, "tie goes to the runner" is a pretty well known saying around a baseball diamond.
