Have I read this correctly and is this a change to the rules?
Yes - you have read it correctly
No - it is not a (recent) change to the rules

So, nowadays, the situation is:

IF BEFORE departure (in other words before you take the first flight)
you want to change either the date/time/carrier of the first flight
or the routing of any part of the itinerary
THEN if the price has gone up since you ticketed then you must pay the new price (and if the price has gone down - you get nothing back, of course)
