10.3.C only allows the umpire to rectify the situation which places either team in jeopardy due to a delayed or incorrect call.
The valid protest is what permits the rule to be applied after the fact.
Like the lines on the field, just because they fade or are not applied to begin does not negate any rules for which they are a reference point, neither does the applicable rule not apply simply because the umpire mistakenly failed to call it.
If you want to hang your hat on the word "declared", I hope you have a lot of hats as they will all end up on the floor.
