That defines it that what has been pictured is multiple appendages. It doesn't take much thought though, to add a string that links all tips of the tubing together making this two appendages. Only one of which would exit that Frame Perimeter at a time making the illegal, legal.

I disagree, but I think it's technically up to the individual inspectors at this point.
Dictionary.com states contiguous is
touching; in contact, or
in close proximity without actually touching; near.
So, since the tubing is all
near each other, you should, technically, be contiguous. As to the string idea, if you do that, you might as well, make it rubber flaps, because stringed-up surgical tubing just looks silly. And flaps would probably be more effective, as well.
