This was your original sentence (what it has morphed into since is quite irrelevant, because my argument hasn't changed since the beginning, while yours has): "It is a fallacy to view being dealt a T or A as a first card after you have already bet and can't change your bet as having an advantage . ..." (My emphasis at the end.)
So, this is a yes or no question that requires a one-word answer and not a dissertation (I dare you to answer in one word; you're totally incapable of doing that): If you have already made your bet and now see only the first card of your hand and it is an ace, do you have an advantage over the dealer at that precise moment in time, or do you not? Yes, you do, or no you don't? One word!
