Yes, that's what I meant. In other words, if you made a final directive that permitted someone else to act for you and you were deemed competent at the time you made that directive, then it would control over your objections at a time when were you later changed your mind but were deemed NOT competent. If you were deemed competent at the later time, then of course you could withdraw your initial directive.
