Therefore, the rule prohibiting entering the intersection on a yellow does not apply in that case.

It's right in front of you

Drivers and pedestrians must not enter the intersection when the light is yellow.
If drivers and pedestrians are already in the intersection, they must clear the intersection.

You can't enter the intersection when the light turns yellow. That means 1mm or 1000 meters, same thing. If you are already in the intersection naturally you have to clear said intersection.
The law as written is insane.
