Actually this is not a necessary condition for a deterministic ciphering and deciphering. Having $&# and $& and $ at the same time is also possible.
I appreciate you finding this old quote. You are technically correct that this is not a necessary condition for a deterministic ciphering and deciphering, which is probably why I didn't say it was. However the situation I have described risks leading to confusion. If ($&#) = ($&)(#) = ($)(&#) in 3 different readings then of course it may well be that only one of these fits the context.
