Sparky,
Good Question.
At this point We don't know for sure which (or any) is wrong. To pick an 'obvious' example, in 210.8(B) (2002 NEC) The Exception for Snow-melting equipment is after Kitchens, not Rooftops. It could be an error/oversight, or it could be that We are supposed to be reading a little differently than We have become accustomed to.
Same argument applies to the Crawlspace Exception in 210.8(a) It is not after Crawlspaces anymore. The Exception was clearly permitted in the past, was it changed?, a misprint/omission error?, or is this a new style? No answers yet.
I think if We can get a definitive answer as to the proper interpretation of the NEC Format as it applies to exceptions everything will be much clearer as to what, if anything, is wrong.
Anyone know how We can find out?
Bill
