Up Topic Welding Industry / ASME Codes / Section IX Bend tests

2007 QW-163 pg. 6.
So, if the specimen has 10 open discontinuities, and none over 1/8", then the Bend test is acceptable? Is there no rejection for multiple or spacing between the discontinuities?
If so, is this consistent with the latest and greatest edition?

That's how I read it.

That's why I reject the welder's performance qualifications if they were qualified per ASME Section IX and the work entails welding structurals per D1.1.
