If I were rewriting the interp, it would go like this:
1. The batter must step into the box first (consistent with existing rule).
2. The pitcher must then take the mound as either LH or RH.
3. The batter may then request time and switch to the other batter's box.
4. Neither may switch again during the at bat.
I think this procedure (a) moves the game along (b) allows the pitcher to choose how he will face a switch hitter (c) gives the offense the last choice, consistent a switch hitter's usual advantage.
