This smells like the old Cloaking Device debate...

Clause 1: At the start of the Combat phase, you may choose 1 enemy ship at Range 1.

Clause 2: If you are inside its firing arc, it discards all focus and evade tokens.

Read Clause 1 in isolation, it functions but has no effect. Read Clause 2 in isolation: 'it' does not refer to any subject, invalidating it as a statement. The two clauses are invalid unless they're read in conjunction. When read in conjunction, they clearly state that the object of Clause 2 (it) refers only to the ship selected in Clause 1.

I see what you're getting at, but you need to do some lingual acrobatics to reach your conclusion. The most straightforward reading reveals no conflict.
