The Bowman Prospect cards of today (labeled BP or BDPP or whatever) aren't RCs because those aren't considered base cards by topps. Topps Pro Debut or Heritage Minors don't count because no major leaguers or major league teams appear. For junk era cards, those are rookie cards where the top prospects and draft picks snuck into the base set.

I don't understand why the "first cards in a base set including other major league players" rule is so tough to interpret.
It's not tough to interpret, but it's just an opinion. And other opinions differ.
