Nope, you are wrong. The 2/5 hour thing applies to lineholders (notice how it's under 13.K.2 which is titled "Regular Pilots"), and then only if say your last round trip cancels (if a RT trip cancels in the middle of day 2, obviously you're going to be sitting at the airport until your overnight flight).
13.K.1 means that they can extend/reschedule a reserve pilot at will (that's kind of the point of being on reserve), not that they are subject to the rescheduling rules that lineholders have.
Again, as a reserve, unless you are told you are on ready reserve, scheduling may only keep you at the airport for 1 hour without an assignment. If they then give you an assignment for a flight that departs 4 hours from now, that 4 hour time period counts as one day of ready reserve.
