Lets not lose track of what we are attempting to accomplish with a 13R system. Losing 1 building due to no attic sprinkler is acceptable when compared to saving 99 buildings that otherwise would have NO sprinklers if the cost was not reduced.

There was a fire several months back in CT where it started on the "open and attached" balcony went up to the next balcony, in through the mansard and into the unprotected attic. The first sprinkler went off when the fire crashed through the roof into an apartment. (protected by 13R system with balconies excluded, per Code at that time). Something like 47 people were left homeless.
