Not sure where you're getting that 18 inches from. The 10"x1/4" and 7"x2" gaps are independent of each other; the 7" has nothing to do with whether or not that 10" gap is legal.
The difference in legality between the two 10" gaps is the depth. The 10"x1/4" is legal because it is not greater than 1/4" deep. The 10"x2" is illegal because 2">1/4".
