I realize the consensus legal opinion matches what you are saying but the text is not nearly as clear as you pretend.

Again, that line is just saying that a party convicted by the Senate may still face criminal prosecution (following the trend of the clause in separating the two actions).
Nowhere does it make it a requirement. No language states, nor implies, this.
The clear theme and intent of the clause is to separate the two concepts. That's why people keep asking for those trying to link them to find the language doing so.
