Yes, but that's not what OP was asking. Based on the information provided, I'm not seeing any need to bypass HOLDERROR on the apply. Some other PTFs in the apply stream might have unresolved PE's however. If so, the OP will have to decide whether the PE will have an impact on their environment before they can safely bypass the HOLDERROR.
