A couple orlando FSDO check airman and even our schools POI interprets you sitting in your hangar or a hangar or an office at the airport as advertising you are a comercial pilot willing to fly for anyone anytime. (advertising , holding out, common carriage)
Seems like grasping to me but they give the checkrides.
Remember laws and regs were made for lawers not pilots.
