Re-read the original post. I just want to point out that no one is saying that the we have a scrimmage kick formation when the QB is only 5 yards deep. It's pretty clear that the second association is saying that the QB or punter must be 7 yards deep.
Don, the other assoication is correct. It doesn't matter if the ball is kicked or not. The snapper is protected if the formation meets the definition of a scrimmage kick formation. Your interpreter is incorrect.
