JAA and Misinterpretation of Tests

How come the UK CAA are failing to correctly apply the instructions laid down by the JAA Manual of Civil Aviation Medicine with regard to Ishihara testing?

"Testing with pseudo-isochromatic plates should be performed according to the instructions given by each test"

The instructions for the Ishihara 24 Plate version clearly states that up to 2 errors on Plates 1 - 17 still constitutes a pass.

So why does the UK CAA not permit any errors?

Is this the same with other JAA states?

Surely, this must be open to challenge.
