I can see it being interpreted both ways, but lean towards the later.

As for the off-Season to In-Season FA, however, we have all bids close at midnight, but it's also specifically stated that way in the rules We have no such statement as that for the RFA period.

I think the intent of the RFA rules was the same. I think the question was raised for the off season to in season, and thus the clarification, but we've never had RFAs last this long, so it never came up. I'm not sure if a vote at this point would be prudent, or if we need to have a rules committee clarification for this time around, and then vote on a clarified rule for the future.
