I can't read minds but there is evidence that the ability was intended to be a turn swap. The biggest part of this was that it worked as such upon releaae. It wasn't until later when other kits were added that it didn't work as such. Second, the passive tm gain has created other issues with ties that cg has admitted were not intended. So it is most likely that the tm swap not causing the selected toon to go next was also not intended.
