OWE Rule 4(d)

Rule 4(d) says, "Travel may not be via the point of origin." Does that mean city or airport? I'm looking at an ex-Japan DONE3, but I need to stop in Tokyo a couple of times. Normally that part of my itinerary looks something like NRT-BKK-NRT-CMB-NRT (when I used to start at MRU, then JNB, and, later, SEZ). If "point of origin" means airport, easy enough to make it HND-BKK-NRT-CMB-NRT, of course. But if "point of origin" means city, it's not going to work. Any ideas?

I think it means city, but I cannot remember where I got that information so I may be wrong

But anyway I think the point is moot, because of:

Rule 4(f) Only one international departure and one international arrival from/to the country of origin permitted.

(unless you're planning a number of domestic flights in Japan )
