CecilOne,
I agree with your understanding, but we should not lose sight of the fact that once such a substitution is made we now
only have nine players on that team. (ie, Neither the DP, and never the FLEX, is permitted to play the field for other players, like the DP could (before such substitution), and still preserve the batting order until the other is reentered.)
