It would appear that you have misread the text. Thinking that perhaps another textform might read differently, I checked the Byz Maj and the TR. Both read the same as the critical text. This is indeed a subjunctive so there is no "indicative form … regarded as having a subjunctive function."

Perhaps this is another instance where an indicative form should be regarded
as having a subjunctive function. Or, is it?
