And that suggests to me that if the building Jarron is working on is not in an area where seismic protection is required that the use of the 3/4" pipe nipples is allowed. Have I got that wrong?

What confuses me is why does the following paragraph exist if 1" pipe is the
minimum size for hydraulic systems: 8.15.19.4.5  The use of pipe nipples
less than 1 in. (25 mm) in diameter
shall not be permitted where seismic design is required on the system.
