I wasn't questioning the basic rule about prerequisites for initiating HTH; those strike me as quite sensible. What I had in mind is the case where you try to enter HTH from behind but roll a 5 on 'entry' roll (meaning you are forced back into the hex from which you approached). That one doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
