When we over think something like this, it then becomes complicated.

So how do you deal with the rule requiring an intermission between quarters?

Thanks for proving my point.

I'll use the common sense side of the argument, correct the error and get the game moving as intended rather than worrying that I ignored a rule about having an intermission "between quarters".

So as I wrote back in my first post in this thread, "There are meritorious arguments both ways without a clear answer."

I respect your opinion and that you cited a case play to support it. I even happen to agree with how you and that case play advocate handling the situation presented in the OP. I just don't agree with your oversimplification of the scenario under the rationale of "I'm not going to worry about the details that don't fit." That may be practical, but isn't helpful to the intellectual exercises regarding the rules that we strive for on this forum.
