Yes that is correct, #3 uses exact strings, so it correctly identifies the right field, and the sub() in itself isn't the problem either, since iteration occurs over the fields and not over the key value pairs (therefore it can substititute multiple occurrences on one line), but the problem is in the replacement part, it was attempting to use sub() on the record instead of a direct assignment to the field, to avoid losing the file separators.
This adaptation should fix that:

replace
replace(1) MySQL database replace(1)NAME
replace - A utility program that is used by msql2mysql, but that has more general applicability as well. replace changes strings in place
in files or on the standard input. Uses a finite state machine to match longer strings first. Can be used to swap strings.
USAGE
replace [-?svIV] from to from to ... -- [files]
or
replace [-?svIV] from to from to ... < fromfile > tofile
SYNOPSIS
replace [-?|-I] [-s] [-v]
DESCRIPTION
replace
-?|-I info
-s silent
-v verbose
EXTRA INFO
Special characters in from string:
^ Match start of line.
$ Match end of line.
Match space-character, start of line or end of line. For a end the next replace starts locking at the end space-character. A
alone in a string matches only a space-character.
EXAMPLE
this command swaps a and b in the given files:
shell> replace a b b a -- file1 file2 ...
