Default Multiple RVR Data

I'm prepping for an interview. As I prepare, I'm reading through the 10-9A for KCLT and have come across an interesting question. I've never actually seen multiple RVR's (based on position, not runway) reported in a METAR before, and searching for samples of multiple RVR METAR's has yielded little.

So, for runways 18L/R, and 36L/C/R:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
"2 operating RVR's are required
All operating RVR's are controlling."

CL & HIRL

TDZ RVR 5
Mid RVR 5
Rollout RVR 5

--------------------------------------------------------------------

For clarity: I've seen RVR reported for multiple runways (R18L/0500;R18R/0500), but how would I see dilineated positions?

Additionally, if all three positions are operating, I would assume that if one of the positions reported less than minimums I'd not be able to takeoff -- if that same unit were offline and not reporting this wouldn't matter -- correct?
