Nope, raw you can jump. The rule already said so, and the clarification also said so

Your position is wrong. Because the creator of the rules states so. Twice

I'm surprised this offtopic discussion has gone on this long. It's actually really simple:

RAW: The errata and FAQ do not allow units, arriving from reinforcements (which "Da Jump" is), to deploy outside the deployment zone - period.
RAI: You ARE allowed to deploy outside the deployment zone T1, as long as you were previously on the board already.

It is not reasonable to expect every player to have access to knowledge of every Facebook post ever made by GW. The facebook GW team also clearly states that they cannot provide official answers - except "this one time because we asked the rules team and it's actually official"; "here's a nice pretty picture".

RAW: Facebook GW cannot provide official answers.
RAI: Facebook GW CAN provide official answers, because "they talked to the rules team".

As far as the official question stated in this thread:

RAW: Waters are murky if the unit retains the buff. The question in specific is referring only to stratagem usage, so...
RAI: ...it's not a stretch of the imagination to understand they meant that rule to apply to units reployed via other methods (such as "Da Jump").

Knock it off you guys; both sides have said their piece, and the resolution comes down to if you're a RAW player, or a RAI player.

Thank you for that concise summary.
