You need a new POI.
I think that's where the discrepency is. When is an F/O ever performing the duties of the PIC? Just because you're the pilot flying doesn't mean you're performing the duties of the PIC. I guess that's the sticking point here. In fact, how could you perform duties of PIC without a required type rating?
