Unreported Courtesy Runner still an illegal player?

Last year ASA modified the penalty for unreported subs. Looking over ASA's illegal player rule (4.6.E and 4.6.F) and the unreported substitute rule (4.6.C) I was wondering if ASA overlooked something.

Suppose S1, who has been in the game, comes into run for the catcher who is on 1B.

Is S1 an illegal player or an unreported substitute and which rule takes precedence?

An illegal courtesy runner is an illegal player. However, if they come into run for the catcher unreported they are also an unreported sub.

Just wondering!
