The 28 days earlier concession applies to immigration applications made under the Immigration Rules. The immigration pathway ends at ILR.
A naturalisation application is not an immigration application, but one under different laws (the British Nationality Act 1981) and has different requirements. Do not assume that the same rules and requirements for ILR will extend to naturalisation.
You will need to complete the full year after ILR and meet the other relevant absence and physical presence requirements based on the date of application.
