Since stopping could potentially wound the figure, figures do have to stop in water and are then subject to damage, as per the bolded part. This was ruled on just a few pages back.
Man that's a weird ruling. I always assumed the whole purpose of that wording was to prevent that beacause it wouldn't be thematic. Hmm... think this may be another job for Captain Houserule!
