Can French citizens flying from Bangkok BKK to SFO do an international, cross-terminal transit in Manila Airport (MNL) with the COVID-19 restrictions?

Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) a.k.a. Manila Airport (MNL) has 4 passenger terminals (mirror), 3 of them serving international flights:

• NAIA Terminal 1: NAIA Terminal 1 serves almost all the international flights. It has west gates 1-7 and east gates 9-15.
• NAIA Terminal 2: NAIA Terminal 2 houses international and domestic flights of the country’s flag carrier, Philippine Airlines or PAL.
• NAIA Terminal 3: NAIA Terminal 3 serves the international flights which are not handled in NAIA - Terminal 1 as well as some domestic flights.
• NAIA Terminal 4: NAIA Terminal 4 hosts flights from local and regional carriers.

I read on http://cms.olympicair.com/timatic/webdocsI/countryinfo.html (Philippines -> Visa -> TWOV) (thanks Crazydre for pointing me to it):

Philippines (PH): TWOV (Transit Without Visa):

• Passengers with a confirmed onward ticket for a flight to a third country within 24 hours. They must stay in the international transit area of the airport and have documents required for the next destination.
• TWOV does not apply when transiting between terminals. A visa and an airline escort are required.
• TWOV does not apply to refugees and stateless persons.

This "TWOV does not apply when transiting between terminals" causes me concern, as I am considering taking the flight BKK ---(PR 731)---> MNL ---(PR 104)---> SFO, and PR 731 lands at MNL on Terminal 2 whereas PR 104 departs from MNL on Terminal 1.

Can French citizens flying from Bangkok (BKK) to San Francisco airport (SFO) do an international, cross-terminal transit in Manila Airport (MNL) with the ongoing COVID-19 travel restriction? Will I need a transit visa, and if so, can I get one on arrival or prior to departure?

Assume:

• the French citizen has no tie and no visa/paperwork with Philippines;
• "international transit" in Manila Airport (MNL) means that the route is: outside Philippines -> MNL -> outside Philippines;
• "cross-terminal transit" means transit between two different terminals do the same airport.

The IATA information about Philippines says nothing about transit and transit visas aside from "Suspension of all visa exemptions and visa on arrival facilities", which leaves the door open for obtaining a transit visa prior to departure if that's possible:
