Lets say you summon a unit during the game. A new unit is added to your army. This new unit is not part of any detachment. Your army is no longer organised that all units are in detachments. You lose battle-forged, you dont gain 1CP in the command phase. You lose all your CP, because you are now an unbound army. Am i right ?

Seems legit

Still, no one is going to play it that way because it is so obviously unintentional.

You're quoting the bullet point summary, not the actual rule.

Some missions will tell you to muster a Battle-forged army. A Battle-forged army has a pool of strategic resources called Command points (CPs) with which to purchase one or more Detachments, into which every unit in that army must be organised.

An army is or isn't Battle-forged at the point of mustering, it isn't checked during the battle.

BCB has it, the timing is important. Also, there's this:

"If a unit is ever added to a battle-forged army during the battle, it is never considered to be part of a detachment."

This sentence shows that the army the unit is added to, is still considered to be battle-forged.
