You're misunderstanding my point.

What I was saying is that

IF

"Fast Play" tiles had to be played AFTER the ordinary tiles (as the review originally said - fortunately this turned out to be incorrect)

AND

Figures were taken as soon as a town was closed off

THEN

The "swap figures" and fleet tiles would be devalued. For the obvious reason that you could not use those tiles and THEN close a town (except with the Ronin).

Look at your example - if you had to play the 2 Rice tile first it wouldn't work. And that is exactly my point.
