I agree, and there was a long debate here a few years ago before they clarified this aspect. Some of us thought the exception should apply to any player whose team was not in control. Others did not. The Others were right, in the end.

That's why I'm not willing to apply case plays to situations that have a fundamental difference, no matter how similar they may seem.

Well, they may now have an interpretation that supports their point-of-view, but that doesn't make them right!

I debated whether to word that as "The Others won" or the way I did it. Neither really seems accurate.
