I can see both points here and while I understand the spirit and intent of Reg B, I don't think regulators or lawmakers ever intended for us to be caught in a perpetual state of application and denial. As with FCRA, there has to be a way to treat these as frivolous.
I would document, document, document, and when the time comes make a risk-based management decision and stick to it. I'd probably let my primary regulator know as well.
