They are definitely holding these proposals to the limitations posted.  One of
our PIs received a letter saying his proposal was removed because he had
over 10 references.  We checked and double checked, and appealed because
both the PI and co-PI had exactly 10 each.

On appeal, NIH responded that their first finding was incorrect, and that
instead the PI had over one page of references (also a limit)... that error
finding was valid.
