I could be very very wrong, but if memory serves something cant be classified under S0 unless it's A: not on any of the other schedules and B: isn't approved for human use. So it couldn't have been classified under both.
In regards to Dank looking for a loophole, it would be idiotic of him. WADA is necessarily overly stringent, and would not accept any loophole (even if there was a loophole, the fact that dank looked for it then used it, would be enough for them to get him under attempted doping I would think)
In regards to Dank thinking he could argue the science of compounds with them... well. ha. good luck with that. That said I believe at one stage he had a mini rant in the media about how they choose substances or somesuch.
I think in general it's easiest to come to the conclusion that he is as dodgy as they come, and if asked to dope players would have, and if not asked to dope players, may well have anyway to get better performance from them and then not told anyone. He seems to have a high opinion of himself and his smarts, so I wouldn't put much past him.
With all that said though, we actually have very little in the way of rock solid facts to go on, though a LOT of circumstantial stuff pointing us to some dark places. I really hope he gets his wish and gets his day in court. One way or another there would be some explosively exciting stories coming out of it.
