If the rule about the limitations in who can teach what answered your question, I guess I didn't understand your question. (I won't comment on your interpretation of 61.195(c)).

I thought you were asking whether an instructor can log the approaches that a student flies under the hood toward the instructor's own currency.

The answer to that is no, no matter what ratings the instructor has on the CFI certificate. The Rule is 61.57(c) which requires that for a pilot to log approaches in simulated conditions for currency the pilot logging them has to be under the hood, not someone else in the airplane is in simulated conditions while the pilot claiming them has his eyes wide open in visual conditions.
