I'm sorry, but you're wrong...

Rule 5.1.2 is obviously only applicable to the W/VE stations. Thus, as 
DX stations only work W/VE station, the rule 5.1.1 applies, and 2 points 
are credited for each QSO.

If you need a confirmation, have a look to the last year results 
(http://www.arrl.org/contests/results/2003/160Meter.pdf).
