Many (not saying you) interpret the MINIMUM statement to mean that it is barely adequate and that is far from being accurate. For NFPA 13, 88% of events activate no more than 3 sprinklers (caution is warranted when applying this number to storage) and NFPA 25 is miles beyond what is warranted for a mechanical condition check.
