No sirs. It does NOT say that. Read it again.

"If the incorrect batter is called out as a result of their time at bat, and is scheduled to be the proper batter, skip that player and the next person in the line-up will be the batter. "

Skip that player. Not "disregard the entirety of the rest of the rule and do something different from every other code." Just SKIP. THAT. PLAYER.

The exception ONLY changes who the batter would be. That's all.
