We have the same "High Mins" under 135.225.
The situation I described is actually under our exemption which allows us to have IFR captains at less than the 1200 hours normally required by 135.243 (c)(2). There are other requirements related to training and supervision as well as significantly higher airport mins that I mentioned.
