Set a rule for the itemtype marked 'Fill other holds=Yes' in step 4 as 'Fill
other holds=No' for the patron's branch in the circ rules - i.e. not for all
branches, just their branch to confirm they use the setting of their branch
when the reserves cnotrol is flipped

This is not a likely scenario, but to demonstrate that the rule is not "No
holds allowed" - but don't fill a hold that is not targeted to this item with
this item.
Most likely, an item that you don't want to fill holds will be marked as 'No
holds allowed' - this rule determines whether the itemtype should fill any
other hold.
If you have 2Wk loan and 1wk loan items, and both can be held and you place a
next available hold, the 1wk item is expected to fill the hold. If the patron
placed an item hold on the 2wk, and 1wk items cannot fill OTHER holds, then the
hold on the 2wk would remain
