The PER restriction does not mean you cannot include PER, all it means is that it cannot be included in a way that it can earn lots of miles. You can fly to PER from the East Coast of Oz and return via ADL, for example, or via CBR. It just means that what used to be possible with 2 segments now takes 3, but it is indeed possible.
