You are dead wrong. If you call this in a game, you will not be backed up by ANY rule, interpretation, or otherwise.
Please quote the whole rule next time:
"It's a balk when:
failing to pitch to the batter in a continuous motion immediately after any movement of any part of the body such as he habitually uses in his delivery"
This means if he doesn't pitch in a fluid motion, it's a balk or if he makes any motion associated with his pitch, and doesn't, it's a balk. It says nothing about changing styles of delivery.
