I sorta get what you're saying, but I still disagree. Actually, it wasn't a sentence. I don't think one word would even have a period, unless it is a quoted declarative sentence, as in, She said, "Scram!"... in which case the end punctuation would still be inside the quotation marks.
Need to drag out my Gregg's, but it's up north.
