"My gut feeling here is that if you choose to support the more liberal 
interpretation, that this will NOT require both above and below protection, 
especially without any significant test data to back it up at this point, 
that this is not the place for a NICET technician to make this decision, or 
for that matter to try to "sell" it to the local AHJ.  Do you really want 
that liability?  Not to mention whether you are exceeding your "authority" 
under NICET rules for practicing engineering?"
