There is no loophole, it's just that after 200 miles anyone can fish
> The P-3C, carrying Defense Minister Luis Alfonso Petri and several senior military officials, flew toward a "concentration" of fishing vessels near the outer edge of the exclusive economic zone (EEZ)—an area extending 200 nautical miles (230 miles) from the coast, within which the country alone is entitled to natural resources.
The Argentinean ships only can be there to ensure none of them get confused and go to the 199.9 mile.
