Is that the point? IOW, is it ok for a player to wear 66 every night, so so long as he doesn't play?
Exactly. You have correctly comprehended the situation.

Why can't A 66 enter the game? It's just an illegal number... B shoots two ft's and gets the ball and play on?

Don't forget about the coach taking a sit for the rest of the game. :D

Should have said can a player wear 66 every night without penalty, so long as he doesn't play?

The answer to your question is yes because of the specific wording used in 10-5-4.

"The head coach shall not permit a team member to participate while wearing an illegal uniform."

Therefore, a kid wearing 66 is not breaking any rule if he doesn't play.

Notice how this is different from the rule involving 0 and 00. That rule doesn't say something such as "a team shall not have players wearing both 0 and 00 participate during a game." (Which would be a better rule in my opinion and would make the ruling in the NFHS interp proper.) It simply says, "a team member list shall not have both..." :(
