That cite works for a student pilot. A certificated airplane pilot getting
glider training is not a student pilot. See the FAQs for Part 61 on the FAA
website.

As another poster noted, a CFI gives authorizations and may limit them as he
or she sees fit. Operate outside that authorization and you violate Part 61
and possible Part 91.

So I repeat my question - what makes you think the
transition pilot is required to comply with any
additional limitations, such as expiration date, crosswind
limitation, etc?

Yeah, so? What makes you think the holder of a student
pilot certificate is required to bide by any of the
CFI-imposed limitations outlined in and required by
61.195(d)(iii)?

14CFR61 Subpart C -- Student Pilots
61.89 General limitations.
(a) A student pilot may not act as pilot in command of an aircraft:
(8) In a manner contrary to any limitations placed in the pilot's logbook
by an
authorized instructor.
