Also on slide 18, those two strips being pointed out with the gap between them ... they are installed turned 90 degrees from the horizontal.
Slide 19 shows the entire wall that way, and that's not the reason they posted that photo, they are only pointing it out because of the cracking, not because the stucco could come loose and fall off.
That problem, and other problems which they do not point out, are in many slides.
