I'll add one more absurdity to your logic.

According to you, the offense is no longer the offense when the 3rd out is made. So if, in a case where defense is continuing to play (legitimately) in order to make a 4th out at 1st base, what happens if a player from the dugout catches the relay to 1st base and takes the ball to the mound? By your logic, this player from the dugout is on defense as well, and is within his rights to catch that ball and begin warming up on the mound!
