If you read carefully the reference you have given it only confirms what I am saying. You are supposed to keep track of fuel consumption all along in cruise and you are supposed to divert before minimum fuel situation arises. You cannot burn extra fuel to create a situation to commit to land and claim the privilege of minimum fuel. Incidently at Heathrow they have checked minimum fuel on board after landing.
