I am fully aware of all the requirements and not confused about anything. This is the sort of shit I have done for a living for the last 30 years.
This is not some theory that I made up it is a legal requirement. Basing your theory on the fact that a couple of guys got chips early in their ownership is ridiculous.

You are looking pissed off. You could just provide the document and it would be fine with me. At least we know now that some car glass companies have the option to make a windshield as thin and light as possible with the restriction to pass some tests.
