What is typically called "one-coat" stucco is and has been the standard of the production home industry for more than 20 years. As in hundreds of thousands of units.
Properly installed,
"Properly installed"
There is no "properly installed" to a stucco application which does not meet the minimum requirements of the standard to which it is supposed to be installed.
That's like saying that "properly driving at 90 mph on a 70 mph speed limit road is okay as most of the time, it works out okay".
I've got a news flash here, 90 mph is only "okay" and "properly driving" on roads with a 90 mph speed limit ... or on a race track. Otherwise, it's just a case of 'everyone does it' when you get stopped and are chatting with the officer.
