I know what you are saying! I could cite the section. However for example lets say that the SOP says that we have to check all pink flowers for bees. The FSD decides that we have to check all pink and all other flowers too! He isnt circumventing, he is being overly cautious. According to the SOP he can do that. At least that's the interpretation here.
