IIUC your distinction is about 'that' referred to initialization only, 
and 'those' that would be referred to initialization + value 
computations etc.
I think the wording is clear enough for the obvious meaning, though: 
they specify that initialization of a parameter is sequenced wrt that of 
any other parameter, but they also specify, in the subordinate, that 
initialization here includes every associated value computation and side 
effect.
This makes the meaning as in your 'those' version, unless I have 
misunderstood your point.

This is a note, which would be allowed to be redundant, but still it's 
about sequencing between argument evaluations and entering of the 
function, while the above is about sequencing of argument evaluations 
with each other. How would this be implied by the above?
