True, but if the city gifting was not a problem (which is how Spullla interpret the original text) their infraction of the rule is really minor (again only if city gifting is legal).
I think this really sums up how difficult it is to write rules, especially slightly complex ones, as it is hard to make sure everyone reads the intention of a rule in a similar way.
