Unfortunately that was the old way of looking at things. Check the annex (A.1) 
for NFPA 13R 2016 edition and the 2nd draft report of the 2019 edition of NFPA 
13R. This light hazard area you refer to is it incidental to the residential 
occupancy? (10% or less of the floors area). If it exceeds 10% then it will 
need to be separated accordingly by the building code. The type of system in 
that occupancy will be based on the occupancy and the system may or may not be 
a 13 system for that occupancy and 13R for the residential. (IE: assembly 
verses business has differing thresholds). If a 13 system is needed for that 
occupancy then that calculation will need hose demand added.

Just my opinion and not that of the NFPA or technical committees

Unless you are coming from a tank/pump, I always include it at the city main 
when the layout is as you describe.  That may be overly conservative.
