Seems to me that the rulebook doesn't mention it because the rules that are actually there cover this situation already. I have no idea why this is a special case, except that you obviously cannot use such a roll to steal someone else's tile.
Sort of.
"If the worm portion that corresponds to the sum of the dice that the player has placed apart is neither on the worm grill nor visible on the stack of another player; he takes another portion from the grill that has a lower number"
To me, this presupposes that such a corresponding worm portion exists. The german also uses a definite article, but I'd expect an indefinite one if it also encompassed nonexisting tiles.
On balance though, I agree the interpretations here make the most sense.
