OK, I'm trying to follow you here...
Let's assume it's listed for service equipment. There is no Breaker upstream of the branch circuit breaker for the pump, so nothing protects the exposed parts of the bus. I can't see how the best OCPD can protect upstream of a fault, and I realized that service cable is under the same risk, but it is covered with insulation, the bus isn't.
Some bus designs, particulary SQ D Homeline, present the hazard of getting across 240V while working on a hot panel. Many people don't like GE, but the buses in GETHQLs are much better protected from accidental contact.
I have more to learn before becoming an inspector; I would have tagged it and I would have wanted a main.
