That is not what I said. But I am correct.

You are wrong. If a runner touches no advance base
after the ball goes out of play, he can return to any preceding base to correct an error, dead ball notwithstanding. If he misses first and is in between third and home when the ball goes out of play, he can still legally rectify his error.
