Here's a related interesting bit:
...
The static ctor for BaseClass isn't required to be run at all. No static members have been accessed.

I think you just mixed up BaseClass and BaseClass2 there.

Here's a related interesting bit:

using static System.Console;

class BaseClass {
    static protected int c = 1;
    static BaseClass() => WriteLine($"{c++}. Static   constructor of *BaseClass*    called.");
    public BaseClass() => WriteLine($"{c++}. Instance constructor of *BaseClass*    called.");
}
class DerivedClass : BaseClass {
    static DerivedClass()          => WriteLine($"{c++}. Static   constructor of  DerivedClass  called.");
    public DerivedClass() : base() => WriteLine($"{c++}. Instance constructor of  DerivedClass  called.");
}

public static class C {
    public static int c = 1;
}
class BaseClass2 {
    static BaseClass2() => WriteLine($"{C.c++}. Static   constructor of *BaseClass2*   called.");
    public BaseClass2() => WriteLine($"{C.c++}. Instance constructor of *BaseClass2*   called.");
}
class DerivedClass2 : BaseClass {
    static DerivedClass2()          => WriteLine($"{C.c++}. Static   constructor of  DerivedClass2 called.");
    public DerivedClass2() : base() => WriteLine($"{C.c++}. Instance constructor of  DerivedClass2 called.");
}

public class Program {
    public static void Main() {
        var instance = new DerivedClass();
        WriteLine();
        var instance2 = new DerivedClass2();
    }
}

The output is:

1. Static   constructor of *BaseClass*    called.
2. Static   constructor of  DerivedClass  called.
3. Instance constructor of *BaseClass*    called.
4. Instance constructor of  DerivedClass  called.

1. Static   constructor of  DerivedClass2 called.
5. Instance constructor of *BaseClass*    called.
2. Instance constructor of  DerivedClass2 called.

The static ctor for BaseClass isn't required to be run at all. No static members have been accessed.
