I'm not sure I understand this one.

The DEFO replacing the DP can only mean that the DEFO bats in the DP's slot. The DP is considered to have been removed from the game when this happens. The DP will have to expend her retry privilege to return to the game. This is currently how it interpreted.

So, how does the "new" proposal change anything?

It is simply a clarification as the last sentence of the rule reads "The DEFO replacing the DP is not a substitution."
