Becasue if it did, someone like you would point out that the rule couldn't be followed if the team didn't have five players. Lah me.

Each rule is written assuming "nothing else" happened. And, since another rule requires 5 players, the "nothing else" in this case is 5 players.

Sometimes, you just need to referee.
