So say I pickup a WS first then a swap I can go over ALV+15 but if I pick up a swap then try to WS I must stay under ALV+15.

This is correct. A pickup from the swap board only looks at FAR's. The ALV+15 limit does not apply although it will reduce your max pickup limit if you are under the ALV+15 limit when you pick it up.
You can also swap with the pot above the ALV+15 limit. The only thing the limit prohibits you from doing is a straight WS that takes you over the max pickup limit.
