The only other possible explanation is that Obama, having not recited the oath which gives him no executive authority yet, was actually a powerless president for about ~5 minutes, because had a situation abruptly occured between 12:00 and the time he took the oath that required executive action, he'd have literally been powerless to execute his duties.
So for a brief time, there was either a president Biden, or literally a powerless executive branch. Those are the only two possible scenarios.
