I agree with the inventors interpretation. If you read carefully, this is the correct interpretation, and it must be the correct interpretation, because if not, LL power is much more than necessary for this game. It is true that I have seen a couple of games in which one player used the wrong rule, and I think I have played one game in which the other player did it and, with some doubts, I have not corrected the move; but I have also seen games played with the correct rule in situations in which it could be made the move using the wrong rule, because it should be favourable, but it was not made, and, if fact, I have an annotated one. Thomas, please take back your move and make another one, this is the correct thing to do.
