Do they interpret "except as provided [above]" differently in the Tax Code?
This could explain my "C" in Tax.

So -- the rule says "this doesn't authorize use of the military" (I'm paraphrasing).
And you read the exception to mean "except for ... well, an invasion, a few hundred billion dollars, a few hundred thousand troops, and an indefinite occupation."
So what use of the military does the rule not authorize?
When, under your interpretation of a statute, the exception swallows the rule, chances are the interpretation is wrong.
