The one thing I do know for sure about this is the Oakland FSDO office has told me that if you lost your medical for health reasons you will not be able to get a sport pilot license. If you were denied a medical for health issues you will not be able to get a sport pilot license. It seems the FAA has found and has closed the loop hole a lot of pilots who had lost or had been refused a medical were planning to use to get another license. Even though a medical is not required if you lost or were refused then that is already in the system and therefore will show up when application is turned in and reviewed and that they can also bring charges against the pilot attempting this route for as you shown in your cut and paste that if a pilot knows he has a medical condition he may not operate the aircraft as a pilot and in making the application for sport pilot license with a known medical conditon would be fraud and all FAA ratings and license will be revoked not suspended.
