Rule? You want the rule?

English Braille American Edition 2002, page XIV-11 says:
Any alternative one-cell contraction should be used in preference to the contraction for "had."
See page 113 (ou of 163) in the pdf edition.

This link will take you right to this rule:

I thought I was told that upper part of the cell would take priority over a choice using the lower part of the cell, so, if that were the case, it would be 456h, then dock. The word haddock would use 6 cells using either choice. Does anyone know what the Library of Congress would consider correct format for this word? I am a novice so am curious.
