I believe as long as you cross by land (private vehicle) and retain your
existing valid I-94, you can return without a new visa stamp.
Another requirement is that your current status should be the same as the
expired visa stamp on your passport.
What that links you sent says is that *if* you apply for a visa *and* you
are denied, *then* you cannot come back.
It does not say anything about retaining the I-94 and not applying for the
visa at all.
Also, it applies mostly to the countries in that special list.
