Well I may as well put all my logs in the garbage then. I have never held the rank of Captain and my PIC time has been accumulated in left seat, right seat, front seat, and back seat. Sometimes I even sat in the left seat and the right seat at the same time.
Of course, if it turned out that what you quoted was not a regulation at all, my logs might still be worth keeping.
