Sure, we've used hyperbole ("virtually nothing") but never did we say you can't do anything at all.
And if you miss commencement once, nothing happens. If you miss it twice, nothing happens.

This is also why you should keep the DF window open so that you can track how close your queue is to popping. It's probably not a good idea to teleport around if your queue is sitting at 1/2 2/2 3/4. And I say this as someone who routinely gets stuck in loading hell.
