Boeing changed the advice in the last few years I think. You need to read the QRH wording very very carefully.
You need also Airframe vibration as well to class it as severe damage.
If you don't have airframe vibration then complete the Engine Limit, Surge or Stall. That could then move onto a shutdown if the problem persists.
Always a good sim bonus point to ask if we have airframe vibration to the examiner.
