I can see where that would confuse you. The law I'm referring to is the one I referenced earlier - 8 U.S. Code § 1401. While that falls under the broad naturalization law umbrella of 8 U.S. Code Part I, the purpose of that particular section is to identify those who acquire their citizenship at birth and don't need to be naturalized, AKA natural-born citizens.
