Sean,

This is solution three from David:

Soltution3:
allows vlan traffic to other side that the OTHER side
has hosts in as well as all interface vlans on the other side.

The first part, correct, but what's the use to allow interface vlans from
the other side, while you don't have hosts in that vlan or neither yourself
an interface in that vlan?
