It is exactly where it belongs, under 7-2-B&C-EFFECT.

You are both correct (IMO) insofar as what you said that I quoted above.
The rule is confusingly written (badly is too strong), but it is in its proper place.
Here is what the rule is trying to say:
Quote:
No runner shall be removed from the base occupied to bat in THEIR  proper place except the batter-runner who has been taken off the base by the umpire as in (2) above. The correct batter merely misses THEIR  - OK it's getting tiresome - turn at bat with no penalty. The batter following the correct batter in the batting order becomes the legal batter.
