You answered your own question.

If I'm understanding his described wiring correctly, it may be legal, although I would seriously disagree with the design.
The way I understood it, the APP that connects to the battery does go directly to the breaker, there is just an additional one in the circuit allowing the PD board to be easily disconnected from the breaker.
I'm fairly certain this is legal, but I have to weigh in and say this is not a good idea. It's far too easy to bypass, and an eager student might do so without realizing it, and thus its a safety concern.
In short, I believe it is legal by the current wording of the rules, but it shouldn't be.
