I just looked and now I remember what happened.
Jim Pauley asked if you just used the material on the bottom of the 2x4 would that still be a problem and all they took away was they forgot to say "caulk".
Mike Holt said the whole thing was silly with several substantiations and was rejected 14-0.
The other proposals were of "the sky is falling" variety and were adopted (including specifically saying the 310.15(A)(2) exception did not apply).
Have we really had a rash of fires from this that I haven't heard about?
The result is we end up with more holes drilled and more of that toxic smoke producing foam in the wall.
