Yeah, but look at 5.1.3f closely. If K recovers behind the NZ and R had touched in the ENZ then, yes, it belongs to K but it's not in the rule where it says K gets a new series of downs. 5.1.4 clearly supports what you're saying (meaning K's ball) BUT it has no bearing on a new series. So, in this case it's K's ball, but if it's 4th down then the ball goes over to R since he didn't muff beyond the ENZ.

5-1-3 says "award a new series to:" This is why K gets a new series. It is at the top, before the A-G stuff.
