Gsellman - RP Eligibility?

5 starts, 10 appearances. And SP/RP eligibility doesn’t really matter, per this thread:

Pitchers and SP/RP eligibility

The example to start the season is Lance Lynn. An owner in my league is wondering if he/she simply has to forego 5 starts worth of Lynn points because Lynn is currently only RP eligible, and thus cannot accrue points if he starts games. I sympathize with him on this complaint. What’s the verdict? Lynn likely isn’t the only example.
