It seems that the current wording means that.

Manually positioned teams already have to start from the outer
line of their goal area and suffer a 10s penalty at kick-off
which seems sufficient to me.

We should discuss this issue in the first team leader meeting
in Singapore.

Thanks for pointing this out.
