What "universal resist JC items" do you think it indicates he is missing?

Platinum Diamond Rings?
Blue Diamond Electrum Earring?
Golden Blue Diamond Pendant?
Platinum Blue Diamond Tiara?

Let's assume you're right and that NW is missing all these. Add them and he's at 221 FR and 121 CR. The gap between the two resists doesn't change being that they're "universal resist JC items." I don't see how a gap between the two resists causes you to automatically conclude NW is missing these items.

The reality is MR is far more important than any other resist by a large margin followed by FR and then another gap before CR. As a result in many situations you'd rather be wearing an EoE than a second Blue Diamond Electrum Earring etc.
