Does the distance rule apply to first-round settlement placements?

The round one section of the rulebook says the distance rule always applies to the other settlements, and the posts agree.

Yes. The rulebook says the distance rule always applies when placing the other settlements, so every settlement in the first round must keep its neighbouring intersections empty.
