Is it the intent of Section 303.1 Exceptions: 5. that accessory religious education rooms and auditoriums with occupant loads of less than 100 are not considered a separate occupancy even if the aggregate occupancy of several smaller separate rooms is greater than 100?

Commentary

If this section was intended to address the aggregate occupant load, it would so state.
