Hi all. Is it legitimate to argue that concrete cover be reduced if the exterior edge of said concrete will be in permanent contact w/ a p.t. flashing nailer permanently secured to concrete w/ embed bolts? Thanks in advance.

No. If anywhere’s going to rust, it’ll be there. Increase the cover, or coat that concrete to stop carbonation.
