I think it should be 03 .11 and 28 days .
The grace time has given to those who do not meet the criteria of 5 years but it is not exempted to those who can meet the criteria.
Please correct me if I am wrong .

No. Anyone who first enters the UK within 3 months of EC can count there residence period from the EC date, rather than date of first entry.
