Good catch...I mis-read that as well.
If I read the rule (7-5-12), he can be in the expanded neutral zone but not beyond it. There is an exception if he blocks B immediately after the snap, he can be in the expanded neutral zone but that doesn't really seem like an exception since the first line says he can be there anyway.
In this example, the ineligible receivers may be legally in the expanded neutral zone but not beyond it on this play.
