Oh, I still have to contradict (with a faint streak of hope left ;-))
Reading - and now re-reading - example 3.9, it doesn't expicitely claim this:

"... In fact, putting more than one sumti into a place is odd enough *that it can only be done by expicit FA usage* ... In this way, no 
sumti can be forced into a place already occupied *unless it has an explicit FA cmavo tagging it*..."

My conclusion from this still is: It is not explicitely disallowed to force a sumti out of its (non-tagged!) place by a FA tagged sumti 
(coming afterwards) claiming this place, unless that sumti coming first claims its place by the same tag (which then causes the 
competing sumtis to share the place).
