SSSSSNNNNNNAAAAAAPPPPP!!!!
There goes the fabric of reality!
Think so? In the original Greek writings there were no chapters, verses or sentence breaks. It was all run together.
Like this...
Act 19:4 ThensaidPaulJohnverilybaptizedwiththebaptismof repentancesayinguntothepeoplethattheyshouldbelieveonhim whichshouldcomeafterhimthatisonChristJesusWhentheyheard

Quite a difference, isn’t it.
Now again.
John baptized for repentance of sin, requiring a belief in Jesus.
When Jesus began to baptize people went to him. John recognized that his baptisms would decrease as Jesus’ increased.
At no time did John tell anyone to go get re baptized because Jesus’ baptism was better. At no time did Jesus demand those baptized by John get re-baptized by him.
By your doctrine all baptisms before the crucifiction were then made invalid.
At no time did Jesus ever require those baptized by his own disciples get re-baptized after the crucifiction.
