The team may continue with fewer than five players if there are no substitutes available. An injured/ill player may return to the game after recovery. (3-3-5)

I can't argue with Altor, nor can I argue with such a specific and clear ( player must leave unless time-out is requested and granted ... team may continue with fewer than five if there are no substitutes available) NFHS interpretation.
It's just that there are a few interpretations (see above) that stress the importance of playing with five when five are "available", and a few that point out an occasional exception of having to "sit a tick".
This "asthma" interpretation has me stymied.
