Mr. Rutledge, clear this statement up for me please. When I look in the officials manual on page 37 section 232 On a disqualification the officials will use the following procedure:

1. the non-calling official shall notify the coach and request the timer to begin the 30 second replacement interval, and then notify the the disqualififed player.

Am I misinterpreting this?
It's a recommended procedure, because it makes everything easier and clearer. It's still the RULE that they have 30 seconds to get in the sub. Whether or not the timer actually sets the clock for that, and buzzes the horn is irrelevant.
