Errors result in B.A. decrease

When the fielder commits an error, the batting average of the hitter drops as though he is credited with an AB. Same thing happens when there is a fielder's choice.

I may be totally wrong, but shouldn't these situations not count as official at bats?

I'm sorry but you are totally wrong

Errors and fielders choices count as at bats.
