I can't blame you, I was having a hard time trying to say what I think. :grin:
Back a few posts you had said ....

The definition has two parts part one is capable of being removed or exposed without damaging the building structure or finish and the second is not permanently closed in by the structure or finish of the building.
I kind of agree that it has two parts, but if we meet
either one then the wiring is accessible.
The first part...
Capable of being removed or exposed without damaging the building structure
Describes many situations but in my mind it clearly applies to conductors or cables in raceways,
The second part ...
not permanently closed in by the structure or finish of the building.
Would apply to conductors and cables that are literally exposed, as in on the surface.
So abandoned cables installed within conduit increases the spread of fire within a building?
It says what it says, everything else is just noise.
