The exceptions kicks in when "A sets or shifts into a scrimmage kick formation", not at the snap when in said formation, and anybody who sets or shifts into an ineligible position remains ineligible even if they shift to an eligible position later. I do not see any language that requires that they must remain in a scrimmage kick formation.
